If you want to drink less or no coffee because of the caffeine content in it, then you quickly reach for decaffeinated coffee. But is decaffeinated coffee really decaffeinated? The answer is: no, decaffeinated coffee is not completely decaffeinated. One cup of 125 ml still contains 2 to 4 milligrams of caffeine. Compared to 'regular' coffee, where the same cup can contain as much as 60 to 85 milligrams of caffeine, this is of course very little. How much caffeine is in a cup of coffee depends on the type of coffee (filter, instant or espresso), how strong it is brewed and the size of the cup.
