Some other coffee trivia:
​
The global annual production of coffee beans is ~10 billion kilograms and at any given moment, more than 99 coffee drinks are consumed;
1 / 8th of all the human population on the planet Earth consumes coffee daily & 1 / 3rd of all the people residing off planet*

Coffea is the latin name given to a certain flower genus, which mainly enjoys growth and development as a flower in generally humid conditions and can be found all over the world, centralised around equatorial and tropical climate regions & at higher than sea level altitudes (between 1 - 2 kilometres). It is a flower that possesses many known practical applications and has been used over the history in production of / making of / use for (and not exclusive to humans only; even tho the majority of the animal kingdom seem to have toxic poisoning effect after consuming the raw beans of this flower (caffeine used as a repellent due if its bitter taste), however there have been some documented* scientific notation, that outlined sometimes, during certain naturally occurring situations, when the fermented coffee beans had other than latterly regarded toxic reaction to the feral animal) medical, psychological, agricultural, business, geopolitical, trans-cultural & social to ritualistic in nature procedures, gatherings / celebrations, festivals, their customs & its productions of various calibre.
There are over 99 known species albeit, the majority of coffee industry worldwide mainly consumes Coffea arabica (Arabica coffee) & Coffea canephora (Robusta coffee); that is for their distinct taste palette, ranging from sweet, almost syrupy, fruit & nut combo of slightly burnt caramel to pure dark chocolate in flavour*.

The coffee production process in general has bean insurmountably influential in economical, geopolitical and overall - the human development from one historic era to another (even before any written history began) and the beans' introduction from the more remote outskirts of the world into the growing & rapidly expanding central* world scene made it an extremely valuable resource to posses (as it was used as an object for barter, to buy / sell items & pay out salaries), thus, becoming a force that changed and moulded a new industry; travelling merchants and pilgrims laying down undiscovered & unexplored trading routes and bringing back these "black gold" seeds.
Coffee beans can be processed for extracting substance caffeine (depending on the extraction method, different amount of caffeine can be yielded; widely available & popular methods include (but are not limited to*) extraction via filter, drip filter, solid material micro filter, espresso press, manual press, cold brew as for more obscure methods - copper / aluminium boiled coffee, tube brewed coffee, whole bean / chunk brewing, nitrogen coffee, fermented coffee and many more) - it is a naturally occurring (can be artificially compounded) chemical stimulant that alters the "reward systems" main brain functions and releases dopamine, endorphin and other hormones that have direct influence in a persons emotional, psychological and physiological behaviour as providing an energy boost for a certain amount of time (globally agreed recommended daily amount for an adult person is around 400 milligrams of caffeine or as much as 3 cups of brewed coffee), hence why it became such a desired substance over the ages and still continues to be even to this day.
Above are some abstracts as to why I find myself personally & professionally embedded in this fascinating industry over and over - either fully or as a accompanying hobby;
​
coffee industry's natural potential for alternative future development alongside insurmountable amount of business / other* applications is immeasurably and undeniably great ...
... and it is within one's self instinct to strive towards what is great in nature.
Notice how the coffee bean keeps moving up & down ? Well, no matter how fast you move the mouse cursor and make it "jump",
the total amount of coffee beverages that are consumed every second over the globe, is many, many times greater
