CLOSED - Coffee Conversation: Event 59

neilamarcano 8 months ago (edited)

I'll be honest about it, if you ask me how many cups a day I drink, I would say it depends on the size, if it's standard (small size), it would be between 4 to 6 cups and medium cups, up to 4 cups; but if they are sizes like my Jumbo cup, it would be two to three cups, it's my favorite by the way.

It's a pity😔, not to consume coffee as I used to, I managed to lose count, how many cups a day I consumed, it was crazy😅, I think that the excess for many years took its toll☕, that's why currently in the afternoons and evenings I can't drink coffee😢, it gives me insomnia, it makes me sad😟 I can't do it, if I do it when it provokes me, I already know that I will not sleep, I will spend the night in vigil😥, this is my reality and I must accept it, I have already been with this routine for a year and a bit.

My favorite, my jumbo mug🥰

That's a huge mug! I use one like that to have vegetable broth and podrrige. Our Simpson mugs 😂 (these mugs have never seen coffee intheir lives:

These cups have three times the capacity of my usual cup, which I have been using for a long time and which holds 140 ml, twice a demitasse (the size for normal people, people free of coffee-related disorders 🤣):

Nothing is wrong with you now, I think. Caffeine is affecting you as it should. The same is happening to me for reasons still unknown to me.

I love many of your cups, they are very pretty, especially the Simpsons one, we don't know the reason, but we already know that we have excess caffeine, in my case that's why I can't drink in the afternoon, Except at night, my days have barely gotten used to it.

I like these jumbo cups, but most of the time I have 40 ml espresso shots. 🤷🏻 Filter coffee comes at about 120-140 ml… I may try to find one of these ginormous pot-like cups. One coffee and I will be done 😁 just kidding… the more, the better!

Best wishes!

Excesses always take their toll, that's the bad thing when we really like something, at least you didn't deprive yourself of delicious coffee. Continue enjoying its flavor and aroma, but in moderation.

0.00 ARCHON

mdosev 8 months ago

My usual coffee dose is about 3-4 cups a day. Sometimes they are 5, but I barely have a day with more coffee than this. It’s not about the caffeine intake, but about money…

Specialty coffee that I am usually consuming most of the time is a bit pricey and bidder daily dose will mean that I have to spend more than $150 per month for coffee… All of it prepared entirely at home. 🙄 I can spend on cheaper beans, but there will be no pleasure in consuming robusta dark roasts. It is not my coffee…

The wise decision (for now) is to stick to these 3-4 cups per day. 😝

Better to have little good coffee than a lot of burnt coffee. Right now I'm paying less than $10 for 1 kilo of regular medium roast beans. I buy 3-4 bags a month because I carry my 1.5 liter thermos almost full of coffee every other day for my classes; I like to share it with everyone, which I wouldn't be able to do if I bought specialty coffee, which by the way, I haven't bought since August of last year.

How much coffee is that? 70 ml or more?

0.00 ARCHON

mdosev 8 months ago (edited)

Specialty coffee is my addiction and I think it is more than two years since I bought my last bag of commercial coffee… 😇

$10 per kg is amazing and I am sure that there is some coffee that is really good for the price. Maybe here in Bulgaria it is more difficult to find good quality beans for about this price, because we are relatively far from the coffee producing countries.

Are your question about the coffee in my photo? I think this has to be about 50-60 ml… It is a double shot espresso.

I think two cups of coffee is my go to amount for the day and it's enough for me. However, I love the coffee taste sooo much probably I wouldnt mind having more than two.
This is my coffee this morning, I had added MTC oil, ghee, cacao and just a thin layer of frothed milk.
I enjoyed it while searching for a new breakfast recipe to make for my little one. 🤍

Lol, here it's regular to have in the winter degrees below 0°C in the day, lets say -5. But I think it goes even colder than this. Hopefully I should try your suggestion. I lpve cloves, it doesnt have to be winter haha. But how do you add in the clove within the coffee?

2 cups of coffee is the right amount for me. Usually I take 1 cup on the morning. I don't know what's in the morning that consuming coffee is much better. The second cup will be at the evening or in the afternoon which usually is a picked up coffee. Consuming too much gives me palpitations.

0.00 ARCHON

missdeli 8 months ago

I'm not sure but I think I too experienced palpitations from coffee, which I wouldn't be surprised happening because I am not too used with coffee and I'm not drinking it since forever.

0.00 ARCHON

This occurs when the dose that the body tolerates is exceeded, it varies from person to person.

Yes, I guess you're right. I definitely experienced something strange one or two times, also being somehow agitated and I linked it with coffee consumption.

I drink only one cup of coffee a day, it can be big or small, I'm happy anyway, of course, my coffee is with milk, a late vanilla or a coffee bonbon are the ones I love, if they have cookies even better! the picture I show you is proof of it, she had a Guayoyoyo coffee... but that's better explained by @aguamiel

I had to google coffee bombon since drinking coffee is relatevely new to me so there's a lot I dont know! I found that bombon coffee has condensed milk in it. Actually it sounds amazing and I have one condensed milk at home so I might try something on my own though 😁

0.00 ARCHON

yenmendt 8 months ago

There are several types of Bombón coffee, Bombón coffee, and Mocha Bombón coffee, the normal thing is black coffee, condensed milk, and evaporated milk, it is a delight! I highly recommend it, if you do it, invite me virtually!

0.00 ARCHON

missdeli 8 months ago (edited)

Omg!!!😂 in the last ten minutes I searched for the Bombon coffee and watched a dozen short movies about it 😳 and I am literally obsessed to try it.
Tomorrow!🤎 Tmr its the day! I went downstairs only to check my kitchen cabinet, to make sure the condensed milk its still there. 😂 this shows how desperate I am to try it, because I am in bed, ready to sleep and went downstairs only for this. 😂
I'm curious to try it because I dont drink my coffee sweetened. However I like condensed milk so I dont know how it goes...anyways, I'm very enthusiastic about this one. I'll came back to you here, tell u my thoughts about this misterious bombon coffee. 😊

0.00 ARCHON

missdeli 8 months ago

Ok, so I did the Bombon coffee this morning. It was ok, I mean it was really nice and a smooth texture, but too sweet for my taste. Tmr I'll try it again with just a quarter of the condensed milk I used today. I thought experience the whole thing until the end 😆. But its looking good though and for the ones that drink their coffee sweetened, this is a paradise. 🌴

I am attracted to coffees that look good. 😆
Anyways, in the end, I would love to have this from time to time and this recipe is one to keep in mind.

Two cups seems to be the right amount for me, though thanks to age (and high tolerance, I guess xD) it's not really a problem if I go over that sometimes.

¡Hello friends! today I come to share some of my tastes regarding coffee. As many already know I love coffee for me is essential a good cup of coffee at dawn the day, especially at that time, in the mornings. Usually I get used to having two cups of coffee at that time and if I get a visit, because we drink coffee, if I want to pause in the afternoons I drink coffee with cookies or something, so it would usually be 3 cups of coffee a day and how many cups do you drink? greetings!

Excellent Monday conversation coffee lovers.

Today I come to participate in this week's conversation. We have been asked how many cups of coffee you drink on a regular basis.

When I first started drinking coffee I remember drinking a lot, exactly how much I couldn't say. Apparently I was becoming addicted to caffeine, so someone advised me to cut down on my coffee consumption. Everything in excess is bad, that person told me, and after some time I reduced the number of cups. Today I can drink from two to four cups, depending on the size of the cup. Here are the cup sizes in which I usually drink coffee.

I hope to continue reading you with the number of daily cups of coffee you consume.

Have a great week of work and for those of you who are resting, happy vacations always with a delicious cup of coffee.☕

When I was a teenager, I'm sure I had only two cups: one in the morning and one at a café across the street from the public library in my hometown. Then I added one more cup after I learned that habit from my older friends; it was one espresso in the evening; I had that one so I could stay awake and read my book. When I started working as a teacher in my twenties and met the horrors of paperwork, my daily intake went from 3 to a dozen cups, haha 🙊

For me, two cups of coffee a day are essential, and to be completely satisfied, they should preferably be espresso coffee, although I am always willing to experience new sensations and flavors.

Happy start of the week coffee friends. Joining the conversation of how many cups of coffee are adequate for me per day, I tell you that at the beginning of the day I prepare three cups of coffee that I keep in a thermos and I drink it, approximately, in six shots, that is, I do not like to see my cup of coffee to the top, I prefer my big cup to half that I savor in a period of about two hours, while I work.

Then in the afternoon I prepare two more cups to share with my husband and just like in the morning I divide my cup into two portions, one that I drink while talking to him and the other while talking to my plants while I water them. Greetings.
