Any hard core coffee drinkers?

^^^ LOL! Glad you did….
Folgers black silk with municipal tap water from a Ninja drip machine here.
Having said that, I do use unbleached cone filters. 
I used to drink 32oz multiple times a day from Dunkin Donuts but it was more out of habit vs addiction. I even bought a french press, grinder, and the whole 9 yards but for the past few months I've substituted home made smoothies for coffee now. I've never gotten headaches from the lack of caffeine (probably from my over intake of soda as a teen) but we'll see if I go back to coffee when my work opens back up.
I grind mine each morning from whole beans roasted locally. Two small cups and I’m good for the day.
Without this ritual I’m really grumpy.

I grind starbucks from costco everyday. Wait for sales and the 2.5lb bag is around 12 bucks. Pretty good deal. Use a cone #4.

I purchase that from costco too, I have two of those bags from my last trim in June. Right now that same bag is 20.49.
that must have been a recent adjustment, i just bought it 2-3 weeks ago in the warehouse for a reasonable price on their last coupon.
I'm not buying anything but groceries, price of everything is jacked and I'm not getting milked screw that.

That is the exact reason for the coffee shopping spree. I think it will get out of hand for a year or so just like lumber.

When I was in college during the 80's my neighbor invited me to have coffee. He brewed with a percolator on the range. Never had anything better.
I tried drinking coffee many times and I never was able to enjoy it until I was almost 30 and went to work for a company where the IT department was in its own little building about a block away from the corporate HQ so we were our own little world. People pooled money to buy one of those 40 cup coffee-maker/urns and bought cups of coffee out of that. One of the supervisors was an early-riser so he'd make the first pot when he got in and I don't know what kind of voodoo he did, but that's what got me hooked.

IDK if I am "hardcore" in regards to coffee, although I did mix up some Dark Roast Folgers with Cafe Bustelo to give it more kick and double the supply. But I am planning on raiding some Aldis but am not stockpiling too much. I doubt it will last more than a couple months. I'll go to tea if I really have too...

I drink coffee towards the start of my day which could be 3am or noon-1pm depending on my work schedule. I like it strong and black. When I make it at home, it's 6 coffee scoops per 12 cup pot. 3 of us will polish that off quickly. I use filtered water out of the refrigerator and just a regular inexpensive coffee pot. I buy the large cans of Tim Hortons fine grind. If I can't get that I like 8 o'clock Colombian or something that's fairly bold.
Can't understand how people can drink something that tastes so nasty and bitter. Oh sure, it's an acquired taste they say. OK.
Been drinking this stuff for the past year. It does the trick.
