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
We have been super happy with CostCo’s Rainforest Blend(I think it’s under 15 bucks for an 3lbs bag) and grinding it ourselves for our EOD cup of joe. We have some specialty coffee’s in some vacuum containers for weekends.
We typically make Americano’s or French pressed coffee.
We also will do drip sometimes but I usually just use the Costco canned stuff for that. We are using it more and more now that we have a 6 month old and it’s on a timer.
