Hurts to go to Costco and a bag of coffee is $20

Brutal is an understatement! Coffee is quite literally breaking the bank, and I just brew it at home.

I switched from a French press to a Bialetti moka pot. It uses less coffee and makes a more concentrated taste cup.

Maybe switch to tea ? Lots of black tea has a good caffeine kick.

You should get into grain coffee, that's what poorer early modern parts of Europe like Prussia and Bohemia drank when coffee was expensive.

Buy bulk powder caffeine. Embrace your inner addict

Coffee and chocolate have gone through the roof - the treats that keep me sane are making me so mad everyday at the price I pay

Is this all (or mostly) from the impacts of climate change ?

Passive, thumb-twiddling, complicit American populace will be fine with this. Fine with anything.

Here’s weird thing I was thinking tho: in taurine-based terms, things have gotten really expensive since I switched, been $2.50 a can since like 1999
