**Title:** The Making of Coffee (satirical/humorous take)
**Summary:**
* Intro: Brief history of coffee, from 850 AD Ethiopia to global consumption (2 billion cups/day)
* **Mock "Factory Tour"**:
+ Coffee beans are harvested, processed, and roasted in an absurd, unhygienic, and inefficient manner
+ Various ridiculous steps, including "motivational" shaking, sorting by starving refugees, and a soothsayer's tasting ritual
+ Rejected beans become fertilizer, while acceptable ones are packaged with nitrogen
* **Espresso Making**:
+ A barista demonstrates making espresso, leading to a meta-conversation about the difference between "how coffee is made" (production) and "how to make coffee" (preparation)
+ The narrator becomes confused, highlighting the blurred line between the two processes
* **Conclusion:** The video ends with a tongue-in-cheek resolution, acknowledging the confusion.
**Tone:** Humorous, satirical, and playful, poking fun at documentary-style content and the complexities of coffee production.
