How much do y'all spend on coffee a month? (lemmy.sdf.org)

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

I drink tea, like the standard orange pekoe stuff. 1 to two bags a day... About $8 for a box of 72... So I dunno less than $5/mo anyway

EDIT pardon me I just saw that this was a coffee community. No hard feelings meant! I still enjoy a social coffee every now and again! May the coarse bean with you or whatever it is coffee drinkers say eachother 😅

Any good coffee drinker can appreciate tea the same. It's all delicious plant water one way or another 🤩
