Not everyone wants caramel or nougat in their coffee. Barista Whey Classic is the protein coffee for those who prefer their coffee to simply taste like coffee: 8 percent real instant coffee, a hint of cocoa, and above all, plenty of whey protein. One container holds 908 grams, enough for about 30 glasses. This makes it the purest of the three Barista flavors, designed for athletes who want to combine their cup of coffee and protein shake into one.
Classic is the only flavor in the Barista range that contains both whey protein concentrate and whey protein isolate, often referred to as whey isolate in sports stores. Isolate is a further filtered form of whey protein: it contains more protein and less fat and milk sugar. The figures reflect this. A 30-gram serving provides 20.9 grams of protein with just 110 kcal, the lowest value of the three flavors. Protein contributes to an increase in muscle mass and to the maintenance of muscle mass. Protein also contributes to the maintenance of normal bones. If you aim for around 1.6 to 2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight daily, a glass of protein coffee is a big step in that direction. Classic contains added lactase; the product is unsuitable for those with a milk allergy.
With 8 percent instant coffee powder, Classic has the highest coffee content in the range. The low-fat cocoa powder behind it rounds off the flavor, much like a mocha in which the coffee clearly remains in charge. It is barely sweet: 0.9 grams of sugar per serving, compared to 3.11 grams in Caramel and 3.55 grams in Nougat. The sweetener sucralose subtly complements this, and xanthan gum gives the drink a creamy thickness without cream or extra fat. In addition, each serving contains 1.1 grams of fiber, something the other two flavors do not list on the label. If you normally drink your coffee black or with only milk, this is the logical choice in the range. Even the aroma from the container is more reminiscent of a fresh cappuccino than a tub of protein powder. Even when mixed cold, that coffee flavor holds up, whereas many coffee powders become flat.
Many people want to know how much caffeine is actually in such a coffee-protein shake. With Classic, there is no need to guess: the label states 80 mg of caffeine per 30-gram serving, or 267 mg per 100 grams of powder. For comparison, a cup of filter coffee usually contains around 80 to 90 mg. So, in terms of caffeine, a glass is roughly equivalent to your normal cup of coffee. Most users drink their protein coffee in the morning or before training, and leave late evening aside. If you alternate it with regular coffee, count both: as a guideline, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) recommends around 400 mg of caffeine per day for adults. Due to the caffeine, the product is not intended for children or during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
You can make Classic exactly as strong as you want. Shaken cold with water, it remains light and fresh; with milk, it becomes a full-bodied coffee shake; and with hot water at a maximum of sixty degrees, it comes closest to a regular mug of coffee. No hotter: whey protein clumps when it gets too hot, similar to milk curdling. On busy mornings, a glass replaces both your espresso and your breakfast protein at once. And after a tough workout, you can drink it as iced coffee with protein, especially in summer. Since the flavor remains neutral coffee, you can also easily mix the powder into oatmeal or a banana smoothie without it suddenly becoming a dessert. A protein coffee like this is also an easy way to spread your protein intake throughout the day.
In short, Barista Whey Classic is the high-protein coffee for purists. Most coffee, least sugar, a blend of concentrate and isolate, and a caffeine content clearly stated on the label. One glass a day lasts about a month. And if you want variety, it alternates perfectly with the sweeter Caramel and Nougat from the same range.

Like a creamy coffee with a hint of cocoa, the least sweet of the three Barista flavours. Coffee is clearly the dominant flavour; it is not a coffee-flavoured milkshake. Prepared with milk, it comes closest to a latte.
80 mg per 30-gram serving, roughly the same as a cup of filter coffee. Per 100 grams of powder, this is 267 mg. Classic is the only flavour in the line where this content is listed on the label.
In terms of coffee flavor and caffeine, yes: one glass is roughly equivalent to a cup of coffee, with an additional 20.9 grams of protein. Prepare it warm with water no hotter than 60 degrees Celsius. Boiling water will make the protein clumpy.
Xanthan gum is a thickening agent made by fermentation. It gives the shake a creamy, fuller texture without the need for cream or extra fat, which is why Classic remains at 110 kcal per serving.
Isolate is an extra filtered form of whey protein with a higher protein content and less fat and lactose. Concentrate is less processed and has a richer taste. Classic combines both, leaving you with 20.9 grams of protein per 30 grams of powder.
This one. Classic contains 0.9 grams of sugar per serving, compared to 3.11 grams in Caramel and 3.55 grams in Nougat. If you prefer a sweeter, dessert-like coffee, choose one of those two.
