A Coffee Bean is a plantable seed that is also the crop harvested from the plants. Coffee Beans grow and mature 10 days after being planted (and every 2 days thereafter) in either Spring or Summer. The primary source of Coffee Beans is Dust Sprites, but they are only rarely dropped (1% chance). They may also randomly appear in the Traveling Cart's Special Stock for data-sort-value="2500">2,500g (25% chance in Fall/Winter) or Standard Stock for data-sort-value="15"100–1,000g (during all seasons). Coffee Beans cannot be purchased from any other stores.

When harvested, each plant gives four beans every two days, with a 2% chance for more beans. Basic Fertilizer and Quality Fertilizer affect only the first bean from every harvest.

Because Coffee Bean is fundamentally considered to be a seed (rather than a vegetable or fruit), its sale price does not benefit from the Tiller profession. Also, it cannot be placed into a Preserves Jar. However, 5 Coffee Beans can be placed inside a Keg to produce Coffee.

Multi-Seasonal Crop

Coffee Beans may be planted in both Spring and Summer. There is no difference in their behavior in either season.

If a Coffee Bean plant (of any growth stage) is in the ground on the 28th of Spring, it will continue growing on the 1st of Summer as though nothing had changed. Fertilizer in the ground underneath a Coffee Bean plant on Spring 28 will not disappear on Summer 1.

Crafting

In order to make Coffee, 5 Coffee Beans from one stack must be put into the Keg. It is not possible, for example, to place 3 Coffee Beans of silver quality and 2 of gold quality into a Keg, because the different quality levels are not stackable with each other, and the Keg will only accept 5 Coffee Beans at a time.

Tailoring

Coffee Bean is used in the spool of the Sewing Machine to create the dyeable Flannel Shirt. It can be used in dyeing, serving as an orange dye at the dye pots, located in Emily's and Haley's house, 2 Willow Lane.

Quests

Five Coffee Beans may be requested by Blobfish in a Fish Pond quest to increase the capacity of the pond from 3 to 5.

Notes

• For Coffee Beans of Gold Star quality or lower, it is always more profitable to brew the beans into coffee before shipping. Each coffee sold (150g each) is essentially selling the beans at 30g apiece (equal to the iridium star price), regardless of the quality level of the source beans.
• Using Iridium-star Coffee Beans to brew coffee is not profitable, because the price of 5 Iridium beans (30g each) is equal to 1 Coffee (150g each).
• There is no price difference between selling 3 Coffees and 1 Triple Shot Espresso, so it is more time efficient to simply ship the Coffee.

History

• 1.1: Introduced.
• 1.4: Can now be used in Tailoring. Can be requested in a Fish Pond quest.
• 1.5: Iridium quality is now possible when using Deluxe Fertilizer.
