I drink about 6 cups a day during the week, free from work; Torrefazione which is quite good.

About 3 - 4 times/week I get some sort of fancy-pants drink from Starbucks/Blendz, so I put $3.01 - $4.00 average

The last part may be flawed as I believe Turkish and black are very similar (Turkish is just a very strong black coffee right?) so I just went with black. definite points for the Airplane reference though :thumbsup:

I don't drink coffee at home. I drink it for free at work.

Usually 2 cups in the morning. 3 creams and 1 sugar.

Most days it's usually espresso, only in the morning and evening, one 2oz double each. I drink it straight about 50% of the time, otherwise anywhere from 1-3oz of microfoam, or 4oz of hot water (americano).

Cost is for me is approx 21 cents per double since I roast my own beans, but this cost does not include my equipment, it's a great hobby :D It's also better espresso than 99.9% of all places that serve it in the US.

I drink about 4 - 5 cups a day. I don't know WTF an "oz" is, I live in the 21st century. We're all metric over here.

If only there were some way for you to look it up...

Oh, I'll do it for you. It's 128 drams for an 8oz cup.

I'm not familiar with that unit of measurement either ;)

You measure liquids in grams? That's pretty.... odd...

I wouldn't worry about it. I'm jealous that you all have the metric system. Dividing by 10 is too hard for us, it seems... but divide by 12? Or 8? Now that's easy...

Work provides it for free, so I drink coffee there during the week. On the weekends, I make my own. I only drink coffee up until lunch time. After that, I drink water during the day.
