Um, forgive me if I'm wrong here, but doesn't an espresso contain 80-100mg per cup, not per kg espresso..?
If a cup of espresso weighs 100g (a random and convenient guess for simple maths) that means it contains 800-1000mg/kg of espresso.
So you'd actually only need about a fifth of your body weight to reach LD50 levels. Am I right? Just don't want to see any 'Kid dies after drinking twice own body weight in espresso' articles!
