MWJB what people see as ‘expensive’ - over the last few bags I’m paying on average £7/100g…it’s clearly not enough
Expensive is relative. Of course, it’s not justified as we don’t see an issue paying £2k for a machine and a grinder and have problems paying £50 for a pop.
The thing is this cost may be ok if some one were to drink a cup or two a day. However, it adds up very quickly for those drinking 4-6 cups a day per person at home.
With the current crisis, the family priorities can quickly change and one might start wondering if they can cut corners reducing the monthly outgoings for beans. Furthermore, beans costing the north of £40-£50 do not guarantee the quality and taste, which themselves are relative. :-)
We have seen disappointing expensive bags. Unfortunately, there is no common ground except we all want to drink some good coffee :-)
