I arrived yesterday from a week of vacation and I know I need to go do some grocery shopping. I only now realized that I don't have coffee. I only drink one coffee a day and it's in the morning with breakfast. We portuguese, have a coffee habit, I only started drinking coffee when I was pregnant with my son, on medical advice because my blood pressure is always low. Now I love coffee but I keep it one a day. I think I'll go out and do the shopping and then have breakfast. How many coffees do you drink a day? Photography of my coffee corner, as you can see the coffee pot (the bigger one) as well as the chocolate pot (the small one) are empty.

I am Italian and we have a coffee habit. I drink two cups of coffee a day, sometimes three if I decide to have a coffee after lunch. I see that you also make espresso coffee.

Yes, I always drink expresso coffee. It seems Italians and Portuguese have identical coffee habits.

I love coffee, however, I'm trying to control drinking coffee specifically the instant coffee due to health reason.

@luisga814 high blood pressure can be a reason to decrease coffee intake.

I lessened my coffee intake. I can only have two cups per day, but it should decaffeinated one.

@nela13 It seems like I am loaded with caffeine in my system. Besides, I need to control it because it might spike my blood pressure.

@Shavkat If you have high blood pressure then it is better to avoid coffee.

@nela13 We go through a lot of coffee at my house. Pretty much everyone in the family, and most of our friends, are big coffee drinkers.

Usually two cups, I try to drink 3 because it is good to ward off dementia.

Running out of coffee? That’s bad planning. I always have at least two spare jars ready to go. I usually drink two coffees a day, one at breakfast like you, and one in the afternoon. The experts reckon you shouldn’t have caffeine after 3pm, and I always listen to the experts. Well, some of the time.

I run out of coffee on the last day before going on vacation, and thought to buy it when I come back. I always have it at home.

I usually only drink 1 cup a day but on cold days I sometimes have 2. Dark chocolate is important, it contains iron.

I don't drink coffee. I did try it and I didn't like it. I love the smell of it though. My mother drinks it though. She sometimes runs out and she is no fun when she doesn't have any.

I like coffee but I am not obsessed about it and my mood doesn't change if I don't have coffee.

I’m not big on coffee and can go for days, even weeks, without it. I’ve tried different kinds, but they all seem to trigger my hyperacidity. Hope you get your coffee soon!
