eliminating wasted Decaf Coffee

Hey all, I work in a coffee shop that is really hurting in the economy, and we are looking at ways to be more efficient with less waste. We only sell about 2 to 3 cups of decaf coffee all day-- but it always comes at different times of the day. I want to keep the coffee fresh, but I hate seeing $2 worth of coffee go down the drain every couple hours -- Have any of you stopped brewing your decaf in shuttles or airpots, and started brewing it by the cup instead? Were customers ok waiting a little longer? I appreciate any thoughts or ideas!
