A different problem (sorry to digress) but why can't I just order a coffee any more, without all this flat white, Americano nonsense.
Put caffeine in a mug. Add hot water, and hand it over.

Using the objective "Scientific Method":
- Make an observation.
- Conduct research.
- Form hypothesis.
- Test hypothesis.
- Record data.
- Draw conclusion.
- Replicate.
- Explore Independent Variables.
This is the miraculous method that Dr. Salk used to cure Polio.
