I usually drink a 19g double shot espresso once per day, or if I brew, a single 20g brew.
I'm curious as to how much others drink per day/cup regularly. I've seen some things recently that make me wonder if I am making larger doses per cup @ 20g than most other people. Is it...
I used to start brewing coffee around 4 to 7 days post roast, o matter the roast level - although I mostly used light roasts. Also, after 8 to 10 days, I would vacuum-seal freeze 3 to 5 day rations.
For the last few months, I have been waiting 14+ days, and some 18+. Coffee...
