Optimum caffeine cycling
Original post in this thread

I've got some caffeine powder ordered from Nootropics Depot (thanks for the store credit!). I've experimented with several doses, and as someone with low caffeine sensitivity even without caffeine tolerance I've found it to be highly effective at doses around 300-600mg over the course of a morning.
To maximize these benefits over time, I'm interested in what information or experience you have with cycling caffeine. So far it's just been every other day for me. I haven't noticed any significant cravings, withdrawal, etc, and for me the caffeine "crash" is more of a pleasant tiredness that makes it easier to have an early night.
Anything you have to add would be much appreciated.

Okay, good to hear another datapoint that indicates I might not need to worry so much.
As a side-note, what would a typical dose for you be?

I usually take 200mg, twice daily. However, I have been known to go higher by drinking a couple energy drinks throughout the day too.
