Kinda a spinoff of the pop thread.
I make me coffee about five times per week. Dh isnt a big coffee drinker and will only have about four cups per year. I make a six cup pot of it. I usually only drink about 1/2 of that. I of course drink more during the colder months than in the summer. I am thinking of cutting back since I dont really need it-plus all the calories from it-I use folgers flavored coffee plus flavored coffee creamers. I am going to start to only make a three cup pot of it and see if I cant get myself down to one cup.

DH and I both drink coffee.

We would make a 12-cup pot during the fall-spring and usually not drink it during the summer.

All that changed when we got our Senseo. It is so much more convenient (although the pods are more expensive). I drink at least 2 cups per day. DH will make one cup before he goes to work.

We used to make half-caff. Now I usually drink the straight caffinated since I don't sleep well at night and really need it in the morning.

I like a cup or 2 in the morning as does dh, I then transfer to the carafe and its still pretty hot so I have another cup at 4 for that afternoon perk up IF we have a big dinner sometimes we will brew a small pot for afterwards!

I drink 3 cups before 12. Then sometimes if I need a jolt of caffine, I will drik another cup around 4.
