Since finding this forum and purchasing my first machine I find that my intake has gone up considerably.  I was just curious how much the average forum member consumes on a daily basis.

One double in an iced latte in the morning, 20 oz of drip on the way to work, 16 oz of drip in the afternoon, one double straight when my son goes to bed.

On weekends, it's no drip.  About 5 or 6 doubles per day.

Usually a double first thing in the morning, a cappuccino later on, and a single after dinner.

Double in a Cappuccino first thing in the morning. 20 oz. coffee at work and a straight double at night. On the weekends it’s hard to say I drink and prepare a lot of coffee for myself, wife, daughter and neighbors.

if im working then ill start the day with a double espresso and a 12oz skim latte with 2 doubles, then during the day ill probably have another two doubles and a random leftover shot here and there (around about 5 or 6) and then a skim 6oz double latte before i leave. if im not working probably about 2 double espresso and 3 double skim lattes

i swear im not addicted :P

3 Brikka regulars, One Brikka Decaf (before bed), one tall regular coffee per day (regular coffee from any good coffee shop I happen to be near... usually end up at Starbucks because we don't have hardly any good shops in my area).

Brikkas from my own roasts.

More than I should at the moment, but I've got the novelty of my first machine, a keenness to hone my technique and the inability to pour any of my shots away to contend with.

My bank account will stop me from getting through 5-6 doubles a day sooner rather than later.  At least I don't like milk drinks or take sugar with my espresso unless I have to.
