My wife and I go through about 4lbs a month using mainly Chemex and Areopress. Used to get (decent) crummy coffee at Aldi and Grocery Outlet, occasionally splurging for local roasts at the coffee shops. Still, I calculate that’s about $35 or so a month on beans, Chemex filters should probably be calculated with how pricey they can be - napkin maths say $11 roughly for a months supply.
$46USD ain’t bad compared to my other vices 😪
Curious to hear if I’m around the average spender or how it tracks! Maybe you have some tips on cheap but amazing coffee? I wouldn’t know unless I asked y’all
Realistic take but it sounds like you’re enjoying the best coffee in your city regardless of how much you spent initially. $120 is a hell of a steal for a whole year of joe, IMO
You most probably won’t reach the coffee quality of a professional roaster at home. It just depends on how much you’re interested in the process or how much the taste is worth it to you.
Nah, the roasts aren’t very consistent so most of the time it’s kinda mid. Sometimes it’s so good it demands 3 more shots.
