[edit] Say if soft portions also contain caffeine, and how much

I eat the berry but spit out the two hard seeds. Mention if I thus avoid caffeine or not?! Jidanni 13:14, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Other uses of coffee beans

"Coffee beans consist mostly of endosperm that contains 0.8 - 2.5 % caffeine, which is one of the main reasons the plants are cultivated"

Are there other purposes (apart from yielding caffeine, that is) for coffee cultivation? If so, please elaborate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Deoxyribonucleic acid trip (talkcontribs) 11:21, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
