    Somewhere between 300-600g a week. Occasionally a little more, rarely less, if ever.

    ~ 350g/week depending on how good the coffee is.

    Not enough :)

    About 350g a week, tend to buy a bag of beans with the weekly shop, and try to try something different each time.

    s**t!! that's a lot of coffee. i used to drink about 5-8 large flat whites a day but in the many months gone by i've managed to get it down to a single cup of coffee in the morning. i use the 14gm basket so i know i'm only using 70gms a week. plus about 10 more in waste.

    since cutting down to just one cup i've started to go to sleep at night. i used to think i was just suffering from a mild case of insomnia. i couldn't imagine going back to the levels quoted above again.

    Right, back to a real keyboard so can type properly :)
    Usually 1 or 2 espresso in the morning before work (2 if wifey doesn't want one, 1 if I have to share).
    2 handpresso shots with brekkie in work.
    I've discovered that I can get 4 "double espressi" from the Jura machine in work into my mug, so that's 8 espresso, per mug (quantity, not quality :) ). I'll have at least 1 but sometimes up to 3 of these mugs a day, depending on meeting schedules (less meetings is less mugs).
    Won't bother drinking any coffee after around 5pm, switch to beer or wine then to come down :)
    Weekends I'll probably just have 3 or 4 espressi in the morning mostly, maybe 1 or 2 in the afternoon if not doing something else our out.
    Can't remember the last time I had coffee in the evening, even out with dinner or whatever, just not something I do.

    Nearly 2 litres a day.


    My mug in work holds 500ml and I drink 4 cups



    dunno how much in grams because I use a bewleys coffee maker in work

    Same.

    edit: That's for myself and my wife, though I drink coffee in the office too, so for myself, probably 400g odd per week.

    Not sure about weight - but 2 x double espressos in the morning, a cappuccino around lunchtime, a mocha later in the afternoon, and a cocoa cappuccino (maybe 2) in the evening.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,464 ✭✭✭snollup


    wow, some of you guys really drink lots of coffee! & i thought i was bad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,272 ✭✭✭donnacha


    weekdays: a double espresso in the morning, a flat white for the drive to work, also bring in 500ml from my pourover to work and the evening I'll either have a flat white or double espresso. depending if i'm in town during the day I can end up having another couple of cups.
    weekend: really varies but at least what I drink on a weekday
    household consumption for me, my wife and any guests is a minimum of 750g (typically 500g, 250g+ pourover)

    7 cups a day. alwasy venti !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,389 ✭✭✭FTGFOP


    0* to OR 225g in a week depending on my mood. If I've bought beans I'll try and use them up in a week.

    *Hey, I've got tea to be getting on with!
