Or does it?

This company wants to use reentry heating to roast coffee beans
A company called Space Roasters says it plans to use the considerable heat of reentry from space through Earth's atmosphere to roast coffee beans. It will then sell them for the perfect cup of joe.

In an interview with Room magazine, the founders of the company, Hatem Alkhafaji and Anders Cavallini, say space is the place to look for a next-level brew. "Coffee has been roasted the same way for centuries now, and as space science has improved many technologies, we believe it is time to revolutionize coffee roasting using space technology," the pair told the magazine.
They haven't set a price on their coffee beans, but soon you'll think Starbucks coffee is dirt cheap!

I usually just do 3 4thsses of a cup for a pot o coffee.

Also I assume space coffee beans will taste like starbucks burnt ass and ozone.

Seriously I don't see why people like starbucks.

I put instant coffee into room temperature water in a plastic cup and mix it with a plastic fork!

I am possibly not the target market for these people.

Confession: I saw the prices they ask for a cup of coffee, when they first arrived in my beloved country. I decided there and then that I could perfectly live without them. So I've never set foot in there so far.
I enjoy outdoor coffee though at times, but that will be in a cafe or even better on a terrace in city center, in a comfy seat and the coffee in chinaware (and even then cheaper as Starbucks).
