According to a survey by Statista Consumer Insights, coffee drinkers in the U.S. rarely stick to just one cup a day. Among those drinking coffee daily, almost 80 percent drank two or more cups while at home on a weekday.
More than half consumed three or more cups on average on such a day. While on the go, U.S. coffee drinkers hold back a little more, with just 20 percent consuming take-away coffee daily and another 24 percent doing so several times a week.
More than half of respondents consume coffee to go only once a week or less often, with 13 percent between the ages of 18 and 74 even saying the never did so.
However, in the latest installment of another Statista survey, only 57 percent of Americans listed coffee as a beverage they regularly consumed.
America's favorite type of coffee is good old drip coffee, with 36 percent saying it was their favorite, followed by 11 percent who prefer cappuccino and 10 percent who root for iced coffees. Instant coffee was not far behind at 9 percent, however. 51 percent of American adults agreed with the statement “coffee is pure pleasure to me”.
“not enough”
1-2
doc said only two cups a day for me
so i bought a bigger cup
1/2. It is a vile drink.
Zero here. Never had more than a few tablespoons. Practically spit it out.
6 regular cups or three mugs in the morning and one after dinner most nights.
Down from as many as 20 in some of my working years. The oilfield drilling business runs on diesel and coffee and sometimes cigarettes or copenhagen. For me the vice was Day’s Work that I gave up with ease.

Great! More for me.
I probably average 2 cups a day, usually Folgers Instant. At a Starbucks or similar, I’ll usually take a cappuccino. At McDonald’s, I’ll take a plain black coffee because anything more complicated than that typically causes the heads of the drive-thru team to explode (as they direct you to kindly settle in to parking space #1 reserved for drive-thru orderers who have baffled the staff).
I make a pot every morning and share it with the wife. She gets one up and I the rest.
I rarely drink coffee although I enjoy the aroma. If I drink something hot, it would usually be soup. I do like the stimulus from caffeine once in a while, for that I will take a caffeine pill, one loaded with 200mg, about the same as a typical cup of coffee.
I read the headline to hubby and he asked if we two were included in the numbers? If so, the numbers would be skewed dramatically. I think we are on our third (maybe fourth) pot of the day. Caffeine is a heck of a drug!
One large black iced coffee daily,,even in winter.
.
Four shots of espresso after breakfast, two after dinner.
Some “coffee” drinks are hardly coffee.
In my case, its almost always one.
An article that discusses how much coffee Americans drink which immediately begins referring to “cups” without defining how much is a cup.
I drink 32 oz every morning. I don’t know how many “cups” that equals.
Folgers Instant. Crack in a cup.
Work in a factory. Had Toyota come by today. Yup!!!
