Beans per dose you're happy to brew. The plan uses fewer beans before it adds decaf.

Pace

Caffeine per day

Day by day

From day 1, caffeine is split evenly so every dose has the same amount, and every dose stays inside your brew range. Each dose first uses fewer regular beans until it reaches the smallest brew. After that, regular gets swapped for decaf. You keep the same number of doses the whole way. Once the next day would reach your goal, the plan switches to the goal doses.

Grams are rounded to 0.1 g, so the mg shown is what you actually get from the rounded amounts.
