For those of us that can't get enough!

I drink anywhere from 3-6 cups a day :shock: ... What's your intake?

    Damn, that is a lot of coffee! I drink 1-2 cups in the morning and that is it. Just feels weird drinking coffee in the afternoon/evening.

    I slowed down. Now I limit myself to the AM. On Saturdays though, I sometimes have it later.

    Usually 2 mugs full. I drink it black. On weekends, I usually keep gourmet/flavored coffee. Had snickerdoodle a few weeks ago, was really good.

    Making another cup now! (love having a Keurig ... even IF I fill it with Tim Hortons coffee!)

    Can't forget my infinite love for Wawa!

    I need a full thermos to get me through the morning at work. Weekends, 3 cups is enough. I'd like to shake the coffee habit, but it's soooo good.

    I went off of it in January... slowly crept back on... then jut recently back full force. Luckily this time I'm drinking it black.

    Its not about how much you drink but what you drink....

    If I am brewing my own its all about Bad Ass Coffee of Maui > Particularly MeneHune Cream (Banana Macadamia & Cinnamon) is my hands down favorite or any of their other flavors.

    If I am getting something brewed its any latte from Starbucks will do but again favorite is Carmel Brulee or if they would bring back the Maple Macciato

    Fucking love coffee. Mornings without it throw me off. I guess I have an addiction to it, but I don't drink but 2 maybe 3 cups in the morning.

    At home I use a french press... best decision I've made in a long time.

    If I get coffee on the way to work I stop at a place called Alchemy Coffee... great stuff there. They buy their beans from Salt Lake Roasting Company who has some very delicious coffee.

    Currently I am still making my through a pound of the Peru coffee that I got from Alchemy. It's a cup full of bliss every morning.

    I put half & half in my coffee and that's it. I used to use the Coffee Mate flavored creamers, but haven't in years and I am happy I made the switch. Tasting the actual coffee is much better than tasting the sugary flavoring, in my opinion.

    I drink a mug of about 16 oz in the AM on weekdays and another cup or so in the PM. Weekends I drink about 3 cups in the morning.

    Have 2 little kids so not kicking the habit (or more likely reducing) anytime soon.

    If caffeine wasn't somewhat bad for you in large quantities I'd drink it all day. Love the taste - all black all the time.

    I'm a snob - love the organic fair trade shit. Really love Ethiopian, Kenyan. Actually really like the big green bag of "Kirkland" coffee at Costco. :!: :o

    Make it in a percolator or press.

    Sometimes I make espresso in afternoons if I'm home (weekends) in the little Italian stovetop thingie. This thing:

    The change in quality was remarkable. I saw it coming though. Made me realize how terrible the drip machine was making my coffee taste.

    How funny. I was marveling all morning long about just how much I love coffee...

    I drink anywhere about 7 cups a day on weekdays, and god knows how much on weekends (15 cups is not out of the ordinary).

    I LOVE coffee. Love it!

    I enjoy a good cup of coffee - but usually ( 1 ) cup in the morning.

    But, lately its been Tea.... hot or iced.

    Go through quite a bit of coffee. French Press on the weekends, and the Keurig during the week. Big thanks to whoever recommended the Solofil for Keurig on the previous coffee thread. Combining that with Peete's Uzuri Blend makes for an excellent cup of coffee.
    "You're no help," he told the lime. This was unfair. It was only a lime; there was nothing special about it at all. It was doing the best it could.
