Coffee Consumption Calculator

How This Calculator Works

This calculator uses your daily coffee consumption habits and the duration of your coffee-drinking years to estimate:

• Total cups of coffee consumed
• Total volume in liters
• Total money spent on coffee
• Environmental impact through disposable cup usage and CO₂ emissions
• Caffeine consumption over time

The results provide both interesting statistics and awareness about your coffee consumption habits and their impact.

Coffee Consumption Facts

• The average coffee drinker consumes about 3 cups of coffee per day.
• Americans spend an average of $1,100 per year on coffee.
• Finland has the highest coffee consumption per capita at 12kg per person annually.
• A typical 8oz cup of coffee contains between 80-100mg of caffeine.
• The world consumes approximately 2.25 billion cups of coffee every day.
• About 16 billion disposable coffee cups are used annually worldwide.

The Environmental Impact of Coffee

Coffee consumption has several environmental implications:

• Disposable cups: Most coffee cups are not recyclable due to their plastic lining, and billions end up in landfills each year.
• Coffee production: Coffee farming requires significant water usage and can contribute to deforestation.
• Carbon footprint: The entire coffee supply chain – from farming to transportation to brewing – contributes to greenhouse gas emissions.

Using a reusable cup can reduce your environmental impact significantly. Just one reusable cup can replace hundreds of disposable cups over its lifetime.
