10 Coffee Facts You Probably Didn’t Know (and Why We Love Coffee Even More for It!)

Coffee is more than just a drink; it's a global phenomenon, a morning ritual, and a social experience. Here are a few surprising coffee facts that might just make you appreciate your next cup even more:


  1. Coffee Beans Aren’t Actually Beans – They’re seeds from the coffee cherry, a fruit that grows on coffee plants! So technically, when you're drinking coffee, you're drinking a brewed fruit seed.

  2. Coffee is the World’s Second Most Traded Commodity – Only oil is traded more, which shows just how beloved coffee is across the globe.

  3. Decaf Coffee Isn’t Completely Caffeine-Free – Most decaf coffee still contains a small amount of caffeine. Generally, about 97% of caffeine is removed, but a cup of decaf can still give you a slight energy boost.

  4. Just Love Coffee Started With a Mission – Did you know that Just Love Coffee was originally founded to help families with the adoption process? A portion of our profits goes toward charitable causes, including supporting adoption, foster care, and other community efforts. With every cup you buy, you’re helping make a difference!

  5. Coffee Can Improve Your Mood – Studies show that just the aroma of coffee can help you feel less stressed. So even if you’re not drinking it, walking into a café can give you a little mental boost.

  6. Coffee Grounds Are Great for Gardening – Coffee grounds make an excellent fertilizer for plants! They add nitrogen to the soil, helping your plants grow stronger and greener. Just another reason to love that morning coffee ritual.

  7. Light Roast Has More Caffeine Than Dark Roast – Contrary to popular belief, the lighter the roast, the more caffeine it contains. So if you’re after an extra kick, a light roast might be your best choice.

  8. The First Webcam Was Invented to Watch a Coffee Pot – True story! In the early ’90s, researchers at Cambridge University created a webcam system to monitor their office coffee pot, so they’d know when a fresh pot was ready without leaving their desks.

  9. Coffee Dates Back to the 9th Century – Legend has it that a goat herder in Ethiopia discovered coffee when he noticed his goats becoming energized after eating coffee cherries. He tried it himself, and coffee was born!

  10. You’re Supporting Animal Rescue with Your Purchase – At Just Love Coffee, 25% of all our merch and retail coffee sales go toward local animal rescues. So every cup and every bag of beans you buy helps make a difference for our furry friends in need.


When you enjoy a coffee at Just Love Coffee, you’re not just fueling your day—you’re participating in a global and local story that’s all about community, care, and a bit of history. So, next time you’re sipping on that fresh cup, take a moment to appreciate the rich journey behind each bean and the positive impact you’re making with every sip!
