how are they defining "cup"? 16 oz? 8? some coffee roasters advise using 6oz "cups" as a measurement, some say 8
Don’t know regarding the study, but as a rule coffee “cups” are commonly either 4oz or 6oz.
6oz is the most common measurement for a “cup” of coffee as far as I know.
which is hilarious because a "cup" for me is more than 3 times that
Yeah, my average “cup” is like 16-18oz.
