Switching Over to At-Home Coffee
If you’re anything like us, coffee is your favorite part of your morning routine. We all have our unique coffee preferences that influence our decision to order coffee out or at home. For a while, Starbucks and other large coffee chains seemed to rule the coffee world, but recently, at-home coffee has become more popularized through TikTok and other social media platforms. Content creators have begun sharing their recipes to make more affordable versions of their coffee shop orders, influencing others to do the same.
The switch to making at-home coffee comes with an array of benefits – from financial to health-related perks. If you are unfamiliar with making coffee at home, we promise that it is easier (and faster) than getting in the car and trekking to your favorite coffee shop.
The Hefty Price of Ordering Coffee Out Every Day
Ordering coffee out every single day comes with a hefty price tag. Depending on your unique coffee order, it is estimated that coffee drinkers can save up to $1,000 a year by choosing to make coffee at home instead of ordering out each day. With inflation, the cost of many of our favorite coffees is upwards of $7. Comparatively, making coffee at home, including coffee, milk, and syrups, can be between $1.50 to $3. When you consider how this adds up over a year, it can be quite a lot. When you decide to switch to at-home coffee, the initial costs may seem like a lot – from a coffee maker to quality coffee beans. However, over time, you will find that at-home coffee is a cheaper alternative to your favorite coffee order.
The Nutritious and Customizable Benefits of At-Home Coffee
How often have you spent $7 on a coffee only for it to be mediocre? Making at-home coffee allows you to customize your daily cup to your liking and choose ingredients that align with your preferences.
The biggest concern of most coffee chain drinks is the high amount of sugar. Many of your favorite, popular coffee chain drinks have over 30 grams of sugar, which can contribute to negative health effects when consumed routinely. Making coffee at home allows you to choose alternative sweeteners and dairy-free milk, depending on your diet preferences. Say goodbye to the days of overly sweetened or watered-down coffee, and embrace a more customizable option that aligns with your health and wellness goals.
Picking the Best Coffee Blends
Picking a coffee blend is an important part of making delicious and quality coffee at home. One of the greatest benefits of at-home coffee is the ability to be selective with your coffee blend. Some store-bought coffee blends have mold, toxins, and pesticides, so it is important to be mindful when choosing one.
