Does Starbucks “spike” their coffee? Add extra caffeine?
Question: Does Starbucks “spike” their coffee? Add extra caffeine?
Do they treat it chemically, or add caffeine, or something?
I have two containers of the same type of coffee – one’s Starbucks, and the other is another brand made by a company that boasts about being “organic” and “natural.”
The coffee beans look the same, same type, same darkness of roast, etc., and smell SIMILAR but the Starbucks container has a “sharper” odor.
I know from brewing coffee from both that the Starbucks batch IS stronger, has more caffeine.
Do they spike their coffee?
If so, why?

I don’t know the actual grams, but I might be able to find out for you when I go to work tomorrow.
One thing I CAN tell you is that the lighter the coffee, the more caffeine there is. Caffeine burns off as the beans are roasted.
Pike Place is one of the milder blends, so it’ll pack more of a punch!
