25g of Carbohydrate. 100mg of Caffeine. Built for Hard Efforts.
Maurten Gel 100 CAF 100 combines 25g of carbohydrate with 100mg of caffeine in a compact 40g sachet. It is designed for endurance training and racing when you want carbohydrate fuel and a measured caffeine serving together.
The gel uses Maurten's Hydrogel Technology and has a firmer consistency than a conventional syrup-style gel. Its neutral taste keeps sweetness and bitterness low, which can make it easier to use repeatedly during longer events.
Maurten Hydrogel Technology
Gel 100 CAF 100 combines glucose and fructose with sodium alginate, gluconic acid and calcium carbonate to create its hydrogel structure.
Maurten's Hydrogel Technology encapsulates the carbohydrates and caffeine in a hydrogel structure designed to carry them through the stomach.
Each sachet contains 25g of carbohydrate in a 1:0.8 glucose-to-fructose ratio, along with 100mg of caffeine.
When to Use It
Gel 100 CAF 100 can be used before exercise or during longer training sessions and events. The compact sachet is easy to carry in a jersey pocket, running belt or bike bag.
Because each sachet contains 100mg of caffeine, include it carefully within your complete fuelling plan. Account for caffeine from coffee, energy drinks and other gels, and avoid taking it late in the day if caffeine affects your sleep.

Our Thoughts
Gel 100 CAF 100 makes sense when you want a clearly measured caffeine dose as part of your race or long-ride fuelling plan. The 25g carbohydrate serving is easy to count, while the neutral taste is a useful change from heavily flavoured gels.
One sachet contains a meaningful amount of caffeine, so more is not automatically better. Test it during training first and keep track of your total caffeine intake across the day.
