Planning for the grading system of caffeine in coffee beans

According to the estimated data of the Food Science Committee of the League, it is recommended that the average person's daily caffeine intake should be below 300mg, which should not have an adverse effect on health. Domestic doctors also recommend that coffee drinkers should have a daily caffeine intake below 300mg.

We drink coffee, tea, refreshing ingredients and refreshing ingredients every day. Every noodle contains caffeine. If we are not careful, we will exceed 300mg. If we have too much time, it will lead to insomnia, pain, anxiety and distraction.

Therefore, since August 1, 2006, the Consumer Security Association of the Executive Yuan has implemented a caffeine labeling system, inviting those who buy coffee on the market to indicate their caffeine content for the attention of consumers.

Today, most of the coffee on the market can be divided into freshly brewed coffee such as Starbucks, 85C, 7-11City Coffee, and family Brown coffee. Etc., with canned coffee such as grilled coffee, Jean coffee, Brown coffee … And so on, the marks according to the classification of the society are as follows:

1. The label of the coffee maker is as follows:

"Color": caffeine content is above 200~300mg or 300mg.

Color: caffeine content 100~200mg.

"Color": caffeine content below 100mg.

Second, the caffeine label of the packing material is indicated:

There are containers or packaged liquid ingredients, caffeine content is marked:

If the caffeine content is higher than or equal to 20mg/100ml (20 mg caffeine per 100ml), the caffeine content is marked by the number of milligrams of caffeine per 100ml. The error tolerance range is limited, and the quality control is correct in accordance with the regulations.

If the caffeine content is lower than 20mg/100ml, the caffeine content is marked "below 20mg/100mL".

The caffeine content of the "instant packet coffee" products that need to be soaked shall be marked with the total amount of caffeine in each serving (mg). The error tolerance range is limited, and the quality control is correct in accordance with the regulations.

Coffee, tea, cocoa and other ingredients that contain less caffeine than 2mg/100mL can be marked as "decaffeinated".

Caffeine warning label:

Containers or packaged liquid ingredients containing caffeine higher than or equal to 20mg/100mL should be marked and colored at the end of the caffeine content label, with the warning of "daily limit of 300mg, careful use of children and pregnant women".

Instant small packets of coffee (to be soaked) products with a total amount of caffeine exceeding 50 mg (mg) should be marked and colored at the place where the caffeine content is marked, with the warning that the daily limit of 300mg should be used carefully for children and pregnant women.

In addition, those whose caffeine content is lower than 20mg/100mL are not required to make warning signs, and the Department of Health makes a screening assessment of their impact on human health.
