slo’s Thursday 1/12 poll - Coffee Drinking (How Much)

[CynBeth]

Usually have a cup of coffee once a week. Sometimes twice a week.

 

[disneychrista]

A cup of coffee equals 6oz. So with that in mind I drink 2 cups during the week. I fill up my yeti in the morning and drink on it for the next few hours while I’m working. On the weekends I brew 4 cups and drink it all morning into the afternoon.

All decaf with either hazelnut or vanilla creamer.

 

[CGB]

I drink iced tea mainly with an occasional cup of hot cocoa. DH would drink as much coffee as allowed. He used to drink an entire pot a day; he's limited to two cups now. I even bought the little coffee maker so he feels like he's drinking a whole pot.

 

[Eviejim]

I have a double espresso every morning with steamed milk (Cortado) and sometimes another one in the afternoon.

 

[1420Elexismc]

Definitely 1, sometimes 2-but never more than that

 

[leebee]

I haven't really measured, but I know DH brews two 12-cup pots every morning. We are 4 adults, but two of us have cappuccino first and then regular coffee if they are having a second cup. I drink a lot of coffee in the morning, and then usually have a mug in the afternoon, M-F.

 

[mamamary]

2-3 cups. My mugs are pretty big though. I recently switched to decaf for my afternoon coffee. I have somewhat high blood pressure and am a heart attack survivor. I shouldn’t have too much caffeine. With that being said I don’t have it to wake myself up in the morning it’s mostly just from habit. I’ve definitely been working on cutting down for health reasons.

 

[soccerdad72]

I stopped drinking coffee a couple years ago (and all caffeinated beverages) as part of a diet my wife and I did and I haven't gone back since.

 

[E&Cmom]

Usually just one . 2 on occasion.

 

[luvnwdwgal]

I hate coffee. I can’t even stand the fancy coffees with the flavors and whipped cream. I can still taste the coffee.

 

[Dan Murphy]

One 10 oz. decaf (cardiologist says no regular) in the morning, most mornings. And then a large (24 or 20 oz.) decaf Starbucks or McD's (decaf) later in the day several days a week when out and about. Black, no cream, sugar, flavors or foo-foo.

 

[tvguy]

Monday through Saturday I have about 2 to 3 half cups at home.
Sunday, we do our grocery shopping at 7 am, and stop at Dutch Bros on the way home for a cup of foo foo coffee.

Jeeves can’t climb stairs any longer.

Next you’ll be asking me why i need an upstairs refrigerator.

I want my first cup of coffee while lounging around before getting a shower and dressed. There’s a small k-cup brewer (shocker!!! It’s Walmart brand) on my bathroom counter. I need a refrigerator for creamer so there is a small dorm cube sized one on an old end table in my closet. It also has some yogurt, cut fruit, soft drinks, etc.

Some time back I mentioned the upstairs fridge (DH has one too in his upstairs office) and you said I was like some of your clients who desire such amenities.

Good for you! I thought about it when we moved a couple of years ago, the bathroom has a little alcove that would be perfect for a coffee station and I like to relax in bed with my first cup. I also would need a fridge for half & half, and there is no electricity there which has held me back, would need an electrician or a long extension cord. When we redo that bathroom it will go in!

 

[Minnesota!]

Usually 2 in the AM and then maybe one in the PM. I make a full, 12 cup, pot every other day. Drink off it till it's gone...

 

[fla4fun]

I drink tea, not coffee. I would say I average a cup a day, with two thirds of that being caffeinated black tea, and one third herbal peppermint tea. I can only drink caffeine in the morning, or I won’t sleep, so if I want a warm drink in the afternoon or evening, it has to be herbal.

 

[Micca]

I brew 5 cups in the morning but probably drink no more than 4--which comes to around 3 mugs of coffee. Black, no additives.

 

[loves to dive]

Usually 2 cups but my coffee cups are not all the same size so I couldn't say in ounces. Hubby always makes a pot every morning. I just look in the cabinet each morning and decide which cup I'm in the mood for. Always, black, always hot. I don't like cold brew and I don't drink decaf. I used to drink a cup every once in a while at night but my reflux decided that wasn't a good idea. Sometimes if it's cold or coldish outside, I'll drink a cup or two of hot tea in the afternoon. Again, just different size cups, sometimes I use bags, sometime I use loose tea, just depends on my mood but always some sort of black tea - Lady Grey is my fav.

 

[BlueStarryHat]

I don't drink anything caffeinated anymore (and I don't like decaf), so no coffee for me. I only miss it when I smell it being made. I love that smell.

 

[fly girl]

One cup in the morning, that's it.

 

[The Mayor]

1 cup of decaf in the morning reading the paper. (Yes I know I’m showing my age by reading a newspaper!!) I gave up caffeine about 25 years ago but old habits are hard to break so it‘s decaf/paper in the morning.
