The average cup of coffee cost 5 cents in 1920. Today, that same cup of coffee may cost as much as two dollars.
Well, it depends where you go to get your coffee. If you go to a fast food place it will cost around 79 cents up to $1.50. If you go to Starbucks it might be a little more. Starbucks would cost about $2.50 to $5.00. It depends what size you get. The National Average is $1.38/cup. The American coffee drinker consumes 3.2 cups per day!
3.5 ( average and crappy ) to 8euros ( Fauchon ...but worth it! ). Overall, coffee has been a huge disappointment...quality wise, even if you pay a lot, it still has been ordinary.
It should take you about 0.24 ounces of coffee to make an espresso, which is what's going to be used in your 8oz cup. That's about 16 cups per pound, so you are looking at about 16c per cup. Don't forget the milk though, if you're making a cafe latte or a cappucino, the milk could be worth another 30c or 40c, and the cup 10c. Wages for your staff will also add another few cents a cup. ref: www.roastandpost.com.au
Fair Trade is supposed to pay fairer prices to individual growers, improving the economy in the (usually impoverished) regions where coffee is grown, passing that extra cost off to consumers. Tim Harford, an economist and a coffee lover, writes in his lovely book "The Undercover Economist", that fair trade coffee is often used as a means to allow coffee vendors to get customers to pay a higher price for their coffee. Branding coffee as "fair trade" allows them, while indeed paying a little more to the growers, to get a much higher price for a similar cup of coffee. Please see the related links for details.
