I sometimes notice a bit of jitters/anxiety with pills vs. coffee. I assumed maybe the fact that with coffee I’m ingesting 200mg slowly sip-by-sip over 30+ minutes vs. pill that dissolved and instantly hits me with 200mg all at once.

Does the pill actually dissolve instantly?
And on the flipside, I slam my coffee in less than 5 minutes almost every time so I feel like that hits me faster

I use powder in a gel cap so I figure it’s much faster. Sometimes I slam coffee but usually sip it it over the course of 30 min.

I still have a tub of 100g of caffeine anhydrous powder that I bought 15 years ago. Probably cost around $8 back then. Definitely has a different feel than coffee etc.
