Too much. At least 5-6 cups per day.

You are about spot on for the optimal amount according to John’s Hopkins.

Hello Steve, for a cup you are referring to an American mug? Because my coffee maker says it's 4 cups, but in reality I can only fill two "normal" American mugs.
And I drink those two mugs, or 4 cups daily.

What type of coffee do you drink? (Americano, espresso, etc) And how do you take it?

Americano with one spoon of sugar per 12oz give or take, and milk. About 5 of those per day

Same, and I get the “How are you even a developer, if you're not drinking coffee?!“ joke all the time.

Can't quite remember, it's a pretty old machine but still works really well. Normally they're around $120-150 though.

A lot of coffee. At least 5 cups daily with 4pm cutoff. Prefer pour over.

The David Lynch House Blend from Allegro is my favorite brew at home right now.

2-3 cups a day. I would drink more but it’s too much work to make coffee via French press more than 1x a day. 😂

Used to drink 1-2 cups per day, but with working from home now I usually drink tea so I don't have to brew a whole pot of coffee.

Only one cup per day. Sometimes I'll have a tea in the afternoon if I get sleepy, but I'm pretty sensitive to caffeine.
