I think the biggest concern regarding the caffeine is this: Does is dissolve completely into an homogeneous solution? This will dictate whether your friends will get a pleasant buzz every time or varying doses each time. If it is homogeneous, I'm all for it in controlled doses, and as long as people know it's in there. Big business has been dosing us with this stuff for years. It's difficult to kill someone with it. Most of us are a bit dependent on it.

I don't like the idea of using the pills. If you weigh the pills you will likely find that they weigh in the area of 1.5g each - that leaves 1300mg of crap after the caffeine is accounted for.

I would estimate the weight of the pills and replace them with a good instant coffee. Maybe through in some whitener of dry milk also.

I think the pills are fine. For one thing they are easy to measure.

I use caffeine pills to caffeinate homemade soda. The ones I use are mostly maltodextrin (modified food starch) which is in lots of different foods anyway and though it is highly processed, I believe is generally accepted as quite innocuous.

What flavouring is best then, and how much?

Hmm, yes lemon or just citric acid would probably mask the taste quite well.

Have I missed something or is there no instructions?
There's ingredients and "use a silicone mold" but how do you make the mixture? Do you crush the caffeine tablets?
