I drink a whole pot of coffee every morning. The coffee maker claims to be a 10 cup pot. I drink it in two huge cups. First cup is coffee with creamer and stevia. Second cup goes heavier on the stevia by about twice, same with the non dairy creamer, and a heaping spoonful of Hershey’s 100% cacao. Pure cocoa.

With the second cup you have to keep a spoon in the coffee cause the cocoa will settle somewhat and need restirring but DAMN its good!

I dont know what some weenie coffee store like starbucks might call the last one. My son says that 10 years ago I would have called it gay coffee.

I’m a half & half/stevia person myself. I wish I could drink more than one cup, but I must be a low metabolism person. I got nine bags of coffee between three people for Christmas. Plus I have a fresh bag of Arabica coffee to get through. I think I’m set for the year.

Lol! Yeah, SIL #2 managed to talk me into pourover. He geeks out about it, but I just noticed that it tastes better than percolated or drip. and being just a trifle OCD, the process is calming all by itself.

An American “mug” is typically a two cup serving.

Something to be aware of when doing the math on pot capacity.

Also, Americans and American blend coffee served at home is typically more watered down than what is tested. Something more volume is fine. Note, this last observation is not nearly as true and general as it was a decade ago, as Americans tend to stronger coffee now.
