What has more caffeine in tee or coffee?

On average coffee, but that is not to say that tea does not have caffeine. Tea USA brands per 8 oz has about 40 mg Drip coffee has about 115-175 mg Just to add a little more to this answer: If you were to measure the amount of caffiene in tea leaves and coffee beans you would find more caffeine in tea but the way coffee beans are processed and ground means that more of the caffeine from coffee gets into the drink. To summarise: If you are talking about the drink: Coffee generally has more caffeine If you are talking about the plants: Tea generally has more caffeine.

Does caffeine in tea affect the body differently than the caffeine in coffee?

A cup of coffee tends to have much more caffeine than a cup of tea. Tea (including black tea, green tea, white tea, oolong tea, etc.) tends to have about 15-70mg of caffeine per 8 oz. cup, whereas the same size cup of coffee tends to have about 80-135mg of caffeine. You cannot generalize about one type of tea (black, green, etc.) containing more or less caffeine. However, by dry weight, tea actually contains substantially more caffeine than coffee. This fact can be misleading, since when brewing coffee, one uses more coffee grounds by weight than one uses tea. Tea is very light, and typically, only 2-3 grams of loose tea leaf are steeped to produce an 8 oz. cup of tea. The brewing method for tea (and to some degree for coffee) can have a large effect on the caffeine content. For tea, using more leaf, and steeping for longer times, can result in a much higher caffeine content in the finished cup.
