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
Well I’ve asked Santa for an AeroPress for Christmas, I take a French press camping but we broke it this year. Planning on getting the metal filter, and finding out myself.
My first coffee maker is my AeroPress! Had it for about a decade now and it’s still plungin’
Took it out camping a ton over the years! It’s been banged up so much and still works perfectly. I usually just bring a stack of paper filters in a ziploc but a metal filter sounds pretty bulletproof now that you mention it…
