Well it has been confirmed, Google Caffeine is live atleast 50% of the time on 209.85.225.103 . This story first broke over at Search Engine Roundtable  on November 27th. Since the story broke about a possible Major Update being reported Matt Cutts from google has chimed in to clear things up. Here is what Matt had to say.

“My plane landed and I had time to check. 209.85.225.103 as an IP address currently hits the Caffeine data center about 50% of the time, so that’s probably what the person at DP was seeing.

I think it’s really risky to take a few threads and turn that into a “major Google update.” For example, one of the links you pointed to was asking about the rankings for their site webtlk.com. Given links like http://74.125.47.132/search?q=cache:iwkj8P8xoSEJ:teqtonik.com/+http://teqtonik.com/&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us&client=firefox-a talking about data recovery and pointing to that site, I’m guessing that Google just got better at determining how much weight should be given to links to that site.

So 209.85.225.103 does hit the Caffeine data center more often than other IP addresses, but it’s always been the plan that Caffeine would roll out at one data center (no more data centers will get Caffeine until at least January).

But I would avoid generalizing, at least as going by the one report that mentioned a specific site that I looked into. Of course, on a lot of the webmaster forums you can’t tell what site they’re talking about, so it’s hard to do any debugging on what might have happened to individual sites there.”

So we now atleast have some verification that Caffeine can be tested atleast part of the time.
