AMERICAN consumers cannot get enough coffee, and that is sending world demand for the beans to an all-time high.
US per capita consumption of hot coffee will be 3.1 kg in 2016, up from three kg in 2015 and matching a record achieved in 2013, according to researcher Euromonitor International. Total domestic consumption will be up 1.5 per cent in the 12 months that start Oct 1 to the highest ever, the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) said in June. Demand in China, Japan and India will also be the most ever.
