Ah I know this one during and after the boston tea party we were looking for something alternate caffiene induced drink and since we thrown all the tea in ocean and refuse to buy it anymore because of tax's we discovered the java. And ever since then the java has been part of American culture since even when we did start to drink tea again lol. It existed before this but was allways considered to bitter of a drink hence invention of adding creamer and sugar to it. When us Americans started in on coffee it spread to the rest of the civilized world like a plague. LOL

I'm going to try this without google. If I remember right in 800 something AD a monk discovered it when he noticed his goats staying awake for days eating some red berries. The red berries are what coffee looks like before it's roasted.

Coffee originates from Ethiopia, where its used has been documented from the 9th century. It was certainly in wide use (albeit as a premium drink) in London in the early eighteenth century (the colonial period, as Americans would see it). London as a financial centre originated in it coffee shops, where particular coffee shops became the meeting place for like-minded financiers (e.g. Lloyds Coffee House, which became the insurers Lloyds of London). I would imagine the colonists took the taste with them. As far as I know, brewing in a pot has always been the basic way of doing it - other, fancier, ways are of more recent origin.

People have been brewing up a drink for thousands of years. As far as in western days, they didn't actually brew coffee, they boiled it. The pot had no interior part; they just boiled it and the spout had a strainer to keep the solid pieces out of the cup. I actually tried it once -- nope. I perk my coffee at home usually.
