How much does it cost to make a cup of Tea or Coffee?

cost of the coffee maker cost of filters cost of cold spring filtered water cost of coffee beans cost of electricity used to run maker cost of person to make it over a long period of time (5 years) with all supplies bought in bulk and the quality of coffee purchased, it probably costs 10-15 cents a cup.

I purchase high quality green coffee beans and roast my own. It costs me about $0.10 a cup...that include the shipping costs. so for a company who buys in bulk and gives a cheap price to the growers it is probably less than half that amount.

I figure it this way....if I use coffee grounds and it makes 10 cups for 4 scoops, measure out the scoops and divide into the amount of grams in the can.....probably about 50 to 60 cents for a pot of coffee Same way for the tea..loose or bagged.

i don,t know the formula but i was an engineer for starbucks and i can tell you that they worked it out that it cost 35 pence all in to make a large cappuchino or latte. ps they charge over 2 pounds to the customers.

I'll let you into a secret. I ran a cafe and it worked out at 4 pence to make a cappuccino or a latte which we then sold for £1.50. Every cafe does the same though.

It depends on the brand and quality of tea/coffee.

2 or 3 pence
