Ultimate Coffee Plantation guide: Coffee Beans in Anno 1800

This is the Coffee Plantation in the New World, and it serves as the starting point for producing Coffee Beans in Anno 1800.

Description

The Coffee Plantation is a New World farm that grows Coffee Beans in Anno 1800. First, it requires no input goods, so it begins producing as soon as it is placed. Next, it steadily generates Coffee Beans at a rate of one ton per minute. Finally, these Coffee Beans are sent to the Coffee Roaster, where they are turned into finished Coffee for the Coffee production chain.

Improvements

In this section, we’ll look at the improvements you can make to the Coffee Plantation. First, we’ll focus on its placement, because this has a big effect on how well it performs. Then, we’ll look at the Trade Union items you can use to further increase the Coffee Plantation’s productivity.

Placement

Here, we’ll look at the placement of the Coffee Plantation. When working with plantations or farms, it’s important to place them in a square or rectangle layout. This makes them much easier to copy and move later when you want to increase production.

Here, we can see a very simple placement for the Coffee Plantation. Because it uses a rectangle layout, you can copy and place it again with very little effort. This makes expanding your production of Coffee Beans in Anno 1800 much easier.

Trade Union

In this section, we’ll look at the items you can place in the Trade Union to improve the Coffee Plantation’s productivity and efficiency. These items can be found in many parts of the game. First, you can buy them from NPCs. Next, you can earn them from quests and world events. You can also get them by going on expeditions or by creating them at the Research Institute. Now, let’s take a look at some of these items.

Layouts

In this section we will be looking at what layouts we can implement for the Coffee Plantation. Layouts are a key component when you are designing your islands in Anno 1800. When you have the layouts correct it means that the production levels and amounts are correct.

Option 1

In this layout, we can see a simple setup for the Coffee Plantation. First, a Coffee Roaster is placed nearby, and then a Warehouse is added to keep movement efficient. Together, these buildings help the production chain run smoothly.
