Brew Coffee Like a Pro at Wanderstop

In Ivy Road and Annapurna Interactive’s Wanderstop, players step into the shoes of Alta, a weary fighter seeking solace in the tranquility of a magical forest tea shop. The serene setting attracts a diverse array of customers, some of whom crave coffee—an item not typically found in the shop’s inventory. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to unlock and brew coffee in Wanderstop.

Which Customers Want Coffee in Wanderstop?

During the fourth cycle in Wanderstop, a stunning humanoid bird arrives at the shop requesting a sophisticated cup of tea. Following her visit, a trio of businessmen named Jerry, Larry, and Terry, all dressed in suits and carrying briefcases, enter the shop. They are en route to a boardroom for a presentation but find themselves off course. When offered tea by Alta, they decline, insisting on coffee. Despite the shop's lack of coffee, they decide to wait until it becomes available.

Boro, the tea shop's owner, explains that coffee has never grown in this forest, leaving Alta initially frustrated. The situation changes with the arrival of Zenith, an interdimensional figure intrigued by the businessmen. Unlike the men, Zenith accepts Alta's offer of tea, finding it a novel experience compared to their usual coffee.

How to Unlock Coffee Beans in Wanderstop

To unlock coffee beans, brew a cup of tea for Zenith using a valuable item, such as a book, trinket, pot, mug, small plant, or photograph. After tasting the tea, Zenith becomes curious about the differences between tea and coffee. When Alta mentions that coffee requires coffee beans, Zenith uses the Infinite Path to introduce coffee beans to the forest for the first time. Instructions for harvesting and brewing these beans are then added to Alta’s Field Guide.

How to Harvest and Brew Coffee in Wanderstop

Once Zenith brings coffee beans to the clearing, they begin to grow wild and respawn randomly. Harvest them similarly to fruits and seeds, and store them in your ingredients pocket or carry them by hand. You can also place them on shelves, tables, floors, or the ground outside.

Before brewing, clean the coffee beans using the dishwasher, and wait for them to be delivered by the dish trains in the tea room. To brew coffee, pour water into the tea maker and heat it according to the order's specifications. Use the tea maker's gear to pour the water into the infuser, then add a single coffee bean (or more if specified). Activate the gear again to pour the brew into the kettle below, and finally, decant it into mugs to serve to customers, Boro, or Alta herself.

Serving coffee not only satisfies the businessmen but also delights Zenith and provides an additional beverage option for other customers. Even Boro is willing to try it, though he admits it's not to his taste.

That’s how you unlock, harvest, and brew coffee in Wanderstop.
