It's worth noting that unless you get siphon, any "coffee" you can find for $6 is much more than just coffee.

- tptacek 16y agoYes, there is also 15 cents worth of milk and energy in it.
- jarek 16y agoDidn't want to get into this, but yeah, in addition to 5 cents' worth of coffee, 30 cents' worth of barista time (fixed), and probably around 50 cents' worth of lease (fixed) and a bit more for equipment (fixed).
- tptacek 16y agoWe can wrap this up tidily by observing that the "coffee house experience" probably does cost some reasonable markdown from $6/cup. The coffee itself, though, is a good we have been trained to pay an exorbitant markup for.
