What if you only use it for coffee? One coffee pot uses about 5 cups. That’s 1.25 gallons to make 80 cups of coffee. Your jug lasts four pots before it’s gone. That’s a lot of morning grumpiness avoided.
What if you’re a survivalist? One gallon per person per day is the survival rule. A five-gallon jug keeps one person alive for five days, no problem. You could outlast a zombie apocalypse, at least in the hydration department.
How Long Can You Store Water In 5 Gallon Jugs
What if you just stare at it? The jug lasts forever. It becomes a monument to your laziness. Don’t be that person.
The "Water Cooler" Factor
If you use a cooler dispenser, you lose water to the air. Those little cups? They spill. Plus, the cooler itself can grow mold if you don’t clean it. That jug lasts a week, but you might get a side of fungus. Yum.
Clean your cooler every three months. It’s not a terrarium. Your jug will thank you.
