Let's debunk the most common coffee myths at Schön Kaffee and discover together the facts behind these widespread assumptions. Find out what is really true about your favorite coffee and how you can understand and enjoy your coffee even better.
Coffee myths that need to be debunked
Coffee is not only a popular drink, but also the subject of many myths and misunderstandings. At Schön Kaffee we want to shed light on the matter and uncover the truth behind some of the most common coffee myths.
Myth 1: Coffee causes dehydration
A common myth is that coffee is dehydrating. However, scientific studies show that this is only the case in very high quantities. In moderate quantities, coffee contributes to daily fluid intake. So don't worry - your morning cup of coffee at Schön Kaffee is not only delicious, but also hydrating.
Myth 2: Coffee is bad for the heart
Many people believe that coffee is bad for the heart. However, studies have shown that moderate coffee consumption does not have a negative impact on heart health. In fact, coffee in moderation can even have positive effects on the cardiovascular system.
Myth 3: Dark roasts contain more caffeine
The roasting affects the taste, but not the caffeine content of the beans. Dark roasts have a more intense taste, but do not necessarily contain more caffeine than lighter roasts. At Schön Kaffee you will find a variety of roasts, so you can choose the intensity of your coffee yourself.
Myth 4: Espresso has more caffeine than regular coffee
It is a common misconception that espresso contains significantly more caffeine than regular filter coffee. In reality, a standard serving of espresso often has less caffeine than a standard cup of filter coffee. The difference lies in the concentration: espresso is more concentrated, so it seems stronger.
Myth 5: Coffee causes insomnia
While coffee has a stimulating effect due to its caffeine content, it is a myth that it inevitably leads to insomnia. The effects of caffeine vary from person to person and also depend on the amount consumed and the time of day. A morning coffee will generally have no effect on your night's sleep.
Myth 6: Coffee causes osteoporosis
Some people think that coffee causes decalcification of bones and thus osteoporosis. However, there is no clear evidence to support this claim. As long as coffee is consumed in moderation and your diet contains sufficient calcium, there is no reason to worry.
