How to produce Coffee in Anno 1800

To begin producing Coffee in Anno 1800 you will need to be aware that it can only be produced in the New World. This means that you will have to open up the New World by going on expeditions first. The Coffee plantation is placed down first and then the Coffee beans will then go to the Coffee Roaster.

Buildings in this chain

In this section we will be looking at what buildings are in the chain for the production of Coffee. This is a simple production chain and is one of the simplest in the game. It only consists of two different buildings. The first step in the chain is a Coffee Plantation and you will need two of these. The Coffee beans that are produced at the Coffee Plantation will then need to go to the Coffee Roaster and you will need one of these.

Building	No. needed	Cost per building	Total cost
Coffee Plantation	2	$2500 Credits 5 Timber -25 Maintenance 10 Jornaleros	$5000 Credits 10 Timber -50 Maintenance 20 Jornaleros
Coffee Roaster	1	$9000 Credits 5 Timber 3 Bricks -150 Maintenance 150 Obreros	$9000 Credits 5 Timber 3 Bricks -150 Maintenance 150 Obreros
		Total	$14000 Credits 15 Timber 3 Bricks -200 Maintenance 20 Jornaleros 150 Obreros

This is the Coffee Plantation in Anno 1800 it is used for the production of Coffee Beans. The Coffee Plantation will have to be placed on an island that has Coffee fertility. The Coffee Plantation can only be placed in the New World and will require quite a large area for the planting of he fields.

To build the Coffee Plantation you will need:

• $2500 Credits
• 5 Timber

You will also need these running costs:

• -25 Maintenance
• 10 Jornaleros

Once these requirements have been met you will be able to produce Coffee Beans reliably.

This is the Coffee Roaster in Anno 1800 it will convert Coffee Beans into Coffee in the New World. The Coffee Roaster will convert one ton of Coffee Beans into Coffee every 30 seconds. The Coffee Roaster is the final step in the Coffee production chain and will all need to be placed into the New World

To build the Coffee Roaster you will need:

• $9000 Credits
• 5 Timber
• 3 Bricks

It will also require these running costs:

• -150 Maintenance
• 150 Obreros

Once you have your Coffee being produced you will then have to send it back to the Old World for the Engineers and the Investors. You will also need to keep some for the consumption of classes in the New World.

Technology Tree

In this section we will look at the Technology tree for the Coffee production chain. This is a simple Technology tree that only consists of two buildings which are the Coffee Plantation and the Coffee Roaster.

Layout

Here we can see a very simple layout for the Coffee production chain. It is a very simple chain that consists of two Coffee Plantations and a Coffee Roaster. We have also added a Warehouse so that the Coffee can enter your inventory quickly.

Improving the productivity

In this section we have placed down a Trade union so that the buildings in this production chain can benefit from it. The placement of this Trade union means that all of the buildings are covered in its range. The buildings in its range do not need to be connected by roads.

Using Electricity

In this section we will be looking at what Electricity does to the buildings in this chain

The Coffee Plantation does not benefit from Electricity.

The Coffee Roaster does gain a benefit form Electricity being added. It will double the output of the Coffee Roaster. This will mean that the output will go from two tons per minute to four tons per minute.
