Ignoring the fact that coffee is already a thing and both it and energy drink work realistically as is..
This chem is bonkers. 50 max stamina after having a single drink readily available at alot of vendors around the station, more than double the energized+ buff from food right off the bat. As long as you don't have 10 units in your body at a time to let it go through 25 cycles (assuming .4 depletion like coffee) you effectively have an energized++++ buff available at most times. You forget this can also STACK with food, meaning someone can be running around with nearly double max stamina because they had a cuppa and a sandwich.
I don't think something we so readily put into our bodies should be a stealth poison, especially since cups normally go up to 50 units and that'd be enough to trigger the 40th cycle effect, but I am down for the idea of freshly brewed coffee healing minor brain damage.
