Ask HN: How much coffee do you drink as a programmer?

Between 2 and 8 cups per day. Usually switch to tea or water later in the afternoon.

I work from home, use an Aeropress, and drink between 4-6 cups of black coffee per day. Once it starts getting late I’ll sometimes throw in a cup of green tea.

I’m in this club. I enjoy the taste but just don’t get the mass appeal/obsession.

Also, always living in a generally hot climate (Texas) has me usually avoiding hot drinks. I know there are cold products now, but I’m too old to start a new habit.

I quit coffee as part of New Year's resolution. I started feeling nauseous in the morning if I drank a cup of coffee in the afternoon the day before.

Once I quit, I thought I'll be less productive, and that I won't be able to focus, but after a week or two, my body recovered from the caffeine addiction.

I started drinking black tea - two cups per day. It's still caffeine, but in far less amount.

I miss coffee, though. I miss its smell and taste and somehow I correlate coffee with work satisfaction, creativity, and being productive. It's probably because the coffee is marketed around work culture, and I bought that.

2 capuccinos/lattes: breakfast & after lunch. I get more milk than coffee.
