Trying this today, purely for the caffeine content. Made it with my new moka pot. I've moved on from the cowboy sieve method, and to be honest, that pushes out a much cleaner kick.

The coffee itself tastes OK, not the worst out there, beats FDC hands down, and I definitely overloaded the moka pot, but I can see how this becomes an enjoyable cup. I would definitely buy this again.

Fwiw it's a robusta blend, and the whole "light roast = more caffeine" thing is actually moot, darker roasts are easier to extract, so the caffeine destroyed in the roasting is offset by being easier to extract into the cup.
