as in, "Do you like coffee" "So much so that i keep my mug by me at all times!"

(i know my example sounds a little awkward, but if you have an idea at all i'd appreciate it. ..)

In this particular case, a tal punto que.

From here, I see that it is: tanto es así que... (literally, so much is it like that that...") But I don't know if it would work unmodified in your example.

I'm thinking maybe...

¿Te gusta café? Sí, me gusta tanto que mantengo mi taza de café acerca de mí todo el tiempo.

So, probably in many circumstances "tanto que" would work better.

But, keep in mind, I'm not a Spanish-speaking native...so I could be wrong.
