The opposite, coffee gives you more cortisol and it takes much longer to process than caffeine (3-4 hours, 5 hours max) so if you drink any coffee past like 11am then you're likely going to carry some of that cortisol into the night
Well yeah, caffeine stays in the body for roughly 3-5 hours.
I'll admit that I don't really have as scientifically accurate numbers for cortisol other than that in my personal experience it stays much longer and that it's accumulative. For example if I have coffee in the morning and booze at night I know I wont sleep, but if I have only one of those during the day I'll probably be fine

isn't that how long caffeine lasts? how long does it take to process cortisol?
