Not that I can think of. Most PW supps use a mix of both caffeine and creatine.
The coffee might deform the creatine b/c of its pH level, but I doubt it.

try it, trial and error as my mom puts it. I once attempted to mix tuna with Pb and it sucked.

Completely up to you to expirement. I personally wouldnt do it just because coffe makes you piss like a raise horse and removes water from your body. With creatine you need to drink water for it to be optimal and prevent any issues. Seems counterproductive.

The higher the temperature and the lower the pH, the faster the degradation.Originally Posted by Mike128

It's not terrible if the exposure time is short, but it's not exactly optimal if it's going to be sitting in there for a while and adding another obstacle in creatine's way from the digestive tract all the way to its final resting place.It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

Thanks for the replies Ill give it a try this workout.
I have been reading a bit online about it and it seems alot of people take caffiene pills in order to lose weight. I have the complete opposite goal as I am trying to bulk. Will this be a problem?

Lose the coffee in my opinion if you are trying to bulk.
