How much do y'all spend on coffee a month?
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

$32 USD a month for 2 lbs (0.9 kg) from a local roaster. Not the most economical, but they do a decent job of roasting.
I do pour over iced coffee (aka Japanese Iced Coffee) using a Hario V60. 35g coffee and 300g water brewed over ice (dilutes the rest of the way and chills the coffee) and I'm good to go.
So about 200g ice?
I just fill my insulated tumbler all the way to the top with ice and I get a perfect amount of coffee. It stops right where the lid goes on top.
However, if you were going to do it the normal way it would indeed be about 300g of ice. Then you'd put that over fresh ice (bigger pieces so it doesn't dilute as much?).
I'm just lazy and also don't want to use a second container so I just do it my way.
