On the Coffee Situation

[danieldwilliam]

I am neither long nor short coffee. I am approximately balanced for coffee.

Each fortnight I receive 500 grams of coffee beans. They come as two 250 gram bags. My coffee maker makes a two-cup pot with approximately 17 grams of beans. So roughly 14-15 pots per 250 grams bag. 14 pots a week is about what we drink. Two cups each a day.

So we're about balanced for coffee.

We do have 8 bags of coffee in reserve. Which is two months worth. Which feels like a bit too much coffee to have in the house now that Brexit is not going to disrupt my coffee supply. Particularly as we are both working from home full time at the moment but won't be soon.

We buy ours from a guy over the border in Rhyl who roasts his own and does unusual varieties, but he hasn't been able to get to Shrewsbury market recently due to various lockdownery, either them or us, so we're hoping to be able to get back on track soon!

The people we get ours from have a coffee shop just round the corner but I think the actual roasting is done on a small industrial estate about three miles away and the beans get posted out to us.
