Went out to pick up my meds, treated myself to some iced coffee in a can
It's actually surprisingly nice
What makes it a treat is less the quality of the coffee itself and more the fact that I didn't have to make it and it's cheaper than a real coffee
@coriander by real coffee do you mean home-brewed or like a black coffee from Dunkin
@wallhackio Either or. Tho we don't have Dunkin here
@coriander I buy 2 lbs bags of coffee beans from a local place and use 14 grams of beans for an 8.5oz drink, which according to my math is 80 cents per 8.5oz of coffee
@wallhackio @coriander $52ish per two-pound bag of beans? That's higher than I'd expect.
@aschmitz @coriander specialty whole beans have gotten more expensive in the past few years :(
@aschmitz @coriander I did order online which does add shipping but even still, hm. mayhaps I should check out if my local Costco has some of these coffees you mentioned
@wallhackio @aschmitz I would also recommend looking for a local roaster tbh
@wallhackio @coriander Even so, though I guess as not a coffee connoisseur I'm not sure what counts as specialty. But my local Costco has two-pound bags of Cameron's Specialty Coffee Organic Velvet Moon Espresso Roast for $14.69, or their own brand of organic Peruvian coffee for $18, so even accounting for a small store and probably smaller production scale, almost triple the cost just seems high. 🤷🏻
