First New Years resolution I ever made, to give up alcohol and drink
far less coffee. Both were giving me serious heartburn and it had
gotten so I cannot even drink beer because of it. Considering I prob
have more caffeine in my blood than hemoglobin, it had to be alcohol I
gave up but 12 cups of coffee a day probably is too much. So, with
only 3 cups in the morning and it being too cold outside to do
anything am feelin a bit tense.
Say what!
12 cups a day???
I drink one large cup a day..at breakfast and was thinking of cutting that
down in size.
How big is a cup?
I am probably up around 8-10 cups a day. We have a "12 cup" maker, my
wife takes 16 oz with her to work and I drink the rest throughout the
day.
I believe coffee maker cups are 6oz, whereas a normal measure is 8oz.
There are 32oz, or 4 cups in a quart.
So, your 12 cup coffeemaker actually makes only 72oz, and not 96oz as
it should.
