Doloc Town Coffee Guide – Coffee Bean, Ground Coffee and Brewing
Grow Coffee Bean, make Ground Coffee in a Drying Box, and brew Coffee in three stations with the correct 10-minute or 5-minute timing.
Coffee has three linked steps: grow Coffee Bean, optionally process it into Ground Coffee, then brew the drink. Both Coffee Bean and Ground Coffee work as the one-unit input for regular Coffee.
The station changes the timer. A Teapot takes 10 minutes, while a Large Teapot or Mortise-and-Tenon Tea Table takes 5 minutes. Large Coffee is a separate two-unit recipe covered on its own guide.
Quick Answer: How to Make Coffee
Put 1 Coffee Bean or 1 Ground Coffee into a Teapot, Large Teapot, or Mortise-and-Tenon Tea Table. Brew for 10 minutes in a Teapot or 5 minutes in either larger station, then collect Coffee.
Coffee Recipe Table
| Result | Ingredients | Station | Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coffee | 1 Coffee Bean or 1 Ground Coffee | Teapot, Large Teapot, or Mortise-and-Tenon Tea Table | 10 min in Teapot; 5 min in larger stations |
| Large Coffee | 2 Coffee Bean or 2 Ground Coffee | Large Teapot or Mortise-and-Tenon Tea Table | 5 min |
| Latte | 1 Milk + 1 Coffee Bean | Large Teapot or Mortise-and-Tenon Tea Table | 5 min |
| Hot Cocoa | 1 Milk + 1 Cocoa Powder | Large Teapot or Mortise-and-Tenon Tea Table | 5 min |
| Tiramisu | 1 Cheese + 1 Flour + 1 Coffee | Large Oven | Recipe record |
Step 1: Grow Coffee Bean
Coffee Bean is the crop-side input for the drink chain. The Coffee shrub occupies a 3-by-2 footprint, takes 12 days for the first harvest, and regrows in about 3 days. Its seed price is listed as 450G. Keep the shrub planted for repeat harvests instead of clearing it after the first beans.
A Seed Compressor turns Coffee Bean into Coffee Seed for replanting. When the first harvest arrives, decide how many beans you need for drinks and how many you want to reserve for the next planting cycle. Large Coffee consumes two units at once, so a two-bean reserve prevents a half-finished batch.
Step 2: Make Ground Coffee (Optional)
- Put 1 Coffee Bean into a Drying Box or Electric Drying Box.
- Wait for the recorded processing cycle and collect 1 Ground Coffee.
- Use Ground Coffee as the one-unit input for regular Coffee, or save two units for Large Coffee.
- Skip this step when you already have enough raw beans for the drink you want.
Ground Coffee is a preparation step, not the finished beverage. Drying the bean does not brew Coffee, and brewing raw Coffee Bean does not require Ground Coffee first. The current recipe records accept either input for regular Coffee; a stat difference between the two forms should be checked in-game.
Step 3: Brew at the Right Station
- Choose Teapot for the regular one-unit Coffee recipe when a small station is all you have.
- Choose Large Teapot or Mortise-and-Tenon Tea Table when you want the 5-minute regular brew.
- Place 1 Coffee Bean or 1 Ground Coffee into the input, start the timer, and collect Coffee.
- For Large Coffee, switch to the two-unit recipe and follow the separate Large Coffee guide.
Teapot is recorded under Tea Ceremony I in the Life technology path, using 2 Tool Operation and 1 Field Study. Large Teapot is recorded under Tea Ceremony II, using 4 Tool Operation and 1 Field Study. The Mortise-and-Tenon Tea Table is tied to a recipe sheet. If a station is missing, open the Life tree and the recipe-sheet collection rather than adding extra ingredients to the wrong workstation.
Coffee Farming Numbers
| Planning item | Recorded figure | Use |
|---|---|---|
| Footprint | 3 × 2 tiles | Reserve a six-tile planting block |
| First harvest | 12 days | Plan the first bean stock |
| Regrowth | About 3 days | Keep the shrub for repeat harvests |
| Seed price | 450G | Budget new plantings |
| Direct-sale planning figure | About 51.2G/day | Light Rain, no genes |
| Processed planning figure | About 101.8G/day | Light Rain, no genes |
The planning figures above use the listed Light Rain and no-gene conditions. Coffee is placed among strong crop choices for Light Rain, Heavy Rain, and Early Dry. Treat Harsh Dry as a separate planning problem instead of carrying one season’s numbers across the whole climate cycle. Current sale price, crop display, and the value difference between raw and processed beans: verify in-game.
Coffee, Large Coffee and Tiramisu
Regular Coffee is the flexible one-unit drink, while Large Coffee is the two-unit drink made only in the two larger stations. Tiramisu uses brewed Coffee with Cheese and Flour in a Large Oven, so a dessert request can consume the drink stock you planned for gifts or Energy. Keep separate storage rows for raw beans, Ground Coffee, finished Coffee, and dessert ingredients.
- Coffee: 1 Coffee Bean or 1 Ground Coffee; Teapot, Large Teapot, or Mortise-and-Tenon Tea Table.
- Large Coffee: 2 Coffee Bean or 2 Ground Coffee; Large Teapot or Mortise-and-Tenon Tea Table.
- Latte: Milk + Coffee Bean; Large Teapot or Mortise-and-Tenon Tea Table.
- Tiramisu: Cheese + Flour + Coffee; Large Oven.
Common Coffee Mistakes
- Using the regular Teapot when the target is Large Coffee.
- Putting only one bean into a Large Coffee batch.
- Treating Ground Coffee as the finished drink instead of brewing it.
- Clearing a Coffee shrub after the first harvest and losing the 3-day regrowth cycle.
- Using Light Rain planning profit as a year-round value.
The current Coffee sale price, Energy effect, crop-season display, and raw-versus-ground stat difference are not listed here. Verify in-game before using them for a profit or stamina calculation.
