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
Not much, the only thing relatively expensive was the expresso machine. Coffee beans we have is mostly Lavazza’s Crema e Gusto (the blue/red bags). On sale it is about 11 to 14€ per kilo. We spend a little extra on good coffee creamer (Friese vlag Goudband). I don’t drink much coffee but I can’t have a sip without making noise…my wife goes “everything alright?”, or “shut the @#€# up?”.
