How much kava do you folks drink per session/day?

I usually drink about one tablesppon of micronized kava. I realize I could drink a lot more but even though I think kava is a great high, I am at a point in life where I am not so interested in getting high. I simply want to live a happy and healthy life. I find low doses of kava give me the same calm and peaceful feelings as higher doses but without the intoxication.

Kava powder's potency will vary, but I usually use 8-11 Tbsp of medium grind, no matter what the overall KL% is of the batch. Sometimes it's mildly intoxicating, sometimes it's not. Sometimes 8 Tbsp hits me harder than 11.
When I use micronized, it's typically 4-6 Tbsp. Although, pleasant but diminishing tranquility can be felt using only 2 Tbsp.

I used 4 tbsp med grind yesterday and it hit me really hard. I typically don't use more than 6 tbsp med grind a night, spaced out in 2 tbsp increments. I've never tried micronized or instant.

Same here, about 8-12 tbsp of medium grind. 4 tbsp. of micronized when I have it, 1 tbsp at a time... I really like starting the day with 1 tbsp. of Mo'i micronized when I have some, but my job doesn't put me in contact with people very often, it's solitary, so it works...

I usually measure in teaspoons since the long handled teaspoons are easier for me to scoop the root out of the bag. So for me its usually about 8 heaping teaspoons. Tonight.. I made some boroguru with 12 heaping teaspoons. We'll see if I drink it all.

I've gotten to where I mix it with a lot of water, and prefer drinking lots of cups of weak kava rather than a few cups of really strong and thick kava. The strong and thick kava sometimes makes me feel like I'm gonna hurl. Party on Garth.
