Buy at starbucks and pay between $2 to $4 per cup. Make it at home at pay 14 -16 cents a cup. Wow, some folks went to college and still haven’t figured that out.
Yeah, you come from the same bean but one’s “bean” processed to death, the other’s “bean” treated a bit better. $tarbucks is definitely a massive ripoff, but its head and shoulders above a can of awful Folgers that just tastes like burnt hair. (I split the difference and buy beans from a local coffee place which they roast themselves and grind ‘em up at home. It’s $28 for a 2lb bag that lasts me a month or so.) Certainly more expensive than Folgers but a heck of a lot cheaper than takeout coffee (and tastes better than both!)

My Nuclear Coffee requires more grounds per batch than an average pot of coffee, still way cheaper by the cup than Starbucks
Much more potent

Considering what you need to pay for a high pressure home espresso machine, the price of some coffee store coffee drinks may be worth it.
