Coffee Trivia Quiz: Brew Facts

One kilogram of green coffee beans sold for 30,204 dollars. That is a real price, paid at a 2025 competition in Panama. A single 20 kg lot came to roughly 600,000 dollars, and the year before, the record was about 10,000 dollars per kilogram. You drink coffee almost every day. How much of its story do you actually know? Coffee Trivia Quiz turns the surprising side of your daily cup into quick three-choice questions you can play anywhere. WHAT YOU GET OUT OF IT 1. Stories worth repeating tomorrow Every question ends with a "so that's why" moment. The paper filter, for instance, was invented by a housewife in Germany who tore a sheet of blotting paper out of her son's school notebook. Detailed explanations follow every question, so a right answer and a wrong one both leave you with something. 2. Myths, corrected "Coffee is the second most traded commodity after oil." "The Americano was born when GIs watered down espresso." Both have been repeated for decades, and neither holds up when you look for the source. This quiz asks about the real story behind claims like these, so you can stop passing them on. 3. Not a barista textbook No jargon drills, no study plan. You get the research that won an Ig Nobel Prize for working out why coffee sloshes out of the cup when you walk, and what actually happens to a bean's weight and volume during roasting. The kind of thing you want to tell someone about. 4. Newcomer or nerd, your pace - Apprentice Barista: the side of cafe talk you had not heard - Barista: enough to earn a nod from the person behind the counter - Coffee Master: deep cuts that surprise even devoted drinkers Start wherever you like. 5. One cup, five questions Questions come by the cup: five per round, moving from picking the beans to roasting, grinding, brewing and the finished cup. A full round fits in the time before your coffee cools. Each cup keeps a score, so you can come back and chase a perfect run. 6. Works with no connection Questions and explanations live on your device, so a weak signal is not a problem. No account, no sign-in. MANY LANGUAGES Questions and explanations are written in English, Japanese, German, French, Korean and more, and the app follows your device language automatically. GOOD FOR YOU IF - You like spending an hour in a cafe - Grinding and brewing at home is part of your routine - You collect things worth bringing up in conversation - You want something better than idle scrolling in a spare five minutes - You love coffee but find expert talk a bit intimidating ABOUT THE CONTENT Questions are written after checking public institutional sources and academic research.
