Look at these examples: French champagne is too expensive to drink every day - Milk is cheap enough to drink every day. This coffee's too hot to drink! - It's cool enough to drink now. Now ask and answer questions like these: Is a kilo of salt enough to make pasta for 6 people? - It's too much! Is a litre of water enough to have a shower? - It's not enough!
