The cap is initially off-white, or coffee-coloured at the button stage. In mid life it often (but not always) turns a pale mouse grey. In old age the cap turns reddish, or what has been described as 'old rose'. It may reach in diameter.

The achacha has an appealing colour and form and is very decorative. It is egg-shaped, up to 6 cm long by 4 cm in diameter. It takes on a reddish-orange shade when mature. There is usually one significant coffee- coloured seed, but larger fruit may have more than one seed.

The flowers are borne in small corymbs in the axils of the leaves. They are irregular, red or white, with four tepals, four short stamens and a long style that persists in fruit. The fruits are woody, winged follicles, oblong and tapering towards the base. They are brown when ripe, and the seeds are coffee-coloured.

Paintings are dreams, and are also openings that lead to other worlds. At times it seems that Corlett is writing a book that moves from our real world to some strangely surrealistic other world. Jo has a friend called Mit, the only other coffee-coloured person she has ever met. Strangely, she only meets Mit when she is on her own.

The skin is black; the epidermis is thick and the dermis is thick. The hump is composed of fat bound together by fibrous tissue. There are no glands on the face; males have glands that appear to be modified apocrine sweat glands that secrete pungent, coffee- coloured fluid during the rut, located on either side of the neck midline. The glands generally grow heavier during the rut, and range from .

Discoloration of stems is another symptom develops from brown spot of rice disease. Oval-shaped brown spots are the fungal growth sign, which have grey colored center developed on host leaves. Dark coffee-coloured spots appear in the panicle and severe attacks cause spots in the grain and loss of yield and milling quality. Also, lesions on glumes and seeds occur if the pathogen associates with other fungi and insects.

The conidial head can vary from tan-yellow to darker coffee-coloured brown and grow as big as 500-800 µm in diameter. The conidial head is affixed atop of a thick, aseptate stalk known as a stipe. Aspergillus wentii stipes are notable for being interspersed and longer than average Aspergillus stalks. The stipe and conidial head together form a translucent, rod-shaped structure collectively known as the conidiophore that in turn, extends from the hyphal tip.

It is a tree of open woodland and wooded grassland. It grows to its greatest size when rainfall of 800-900mm is received but can grow and even thrive in very dry conditions such as the Karoo region of western South Africa. The requirement here is for deep soils that allow its roots to spread. Everywhere in its range, however, the tree is easily recognised by its distinctive long white paired thorns and coffee coloured bark, both of which are very attractive.

Although George Ridley's original manuscript gives the spelling "Coffy" all later publications spell it in the usual way. Local history archives contain anecdotal evidence that he was nicknamed Coffy because he always used to have a cup before school. There is also anecdotal evidence that he may have been of mixed race, hence his "coffee" coloured skin, which would have been unusual in Tyneside at this time. Furthermore, it has been suggested that it was derived from his birth mother, Sarah Koeffer's, surname.

" He noted the anti-French and anti-American tone, and pointed out the use of offensive language: "references to 'Islamic headcases' and 'Islamic nutcases'. Arabs are casually noted to have 'hook noses' and 'slanty eyes'; a mixed-race Briton is called 'coffee-coloured'; and there are mentions of 'pikeys' and people who are 'half-caste'." Sexist content was also noted. More sinister was that "the suggestion – from both an external observer, and the protagonist’s inner voice – that Barlow [the author surrogate] may be a fraud.

Typical coloration for hatchlings is grey above with bright cream and black below. The colour of adults varies with differing swamp conditions, and varies from medium yellow-brown in clay swamps to almost black with a maroon tinge in the black coffee-coloured water of sandy swamps. Plastron colour is variable, from yellow to brown or occasionally black; often there are black spots on a yellow background with black edges to the scutes. The legs are short and covered in scale-like scutes and the feet have well-developed claws.

The Secret River appeared two years after Rawlings' death with illustrations by the 1948 Caldecott Medal winner Leonard Weisgard, who used coffee-coloured paper as an innovative way to circumvent a taboo of the era against portraying dark-skinned characters. In his book In the Company of Writers, Charles Scribner discusses The Secret River's publication, noting Rawlings never mentions Calpurnia's race. Since the book went into production after her death Rawlings could not be consulted about her final intentions. At this time the depiction of black children in American children's literature had decreased until it was almost non-existent.

She then meets an atheist behaviourist (with a strong resemblance to Ivan Pavlov) and a coterie of intellectuals who explain that speculations about God are passé, and that a better quest lies in abstract mathematics. She disposes of them all, first and last, by trenchant logic and the occasional skilled use of her knobkerry. Eventually she meets an old gentleman who (like Voltaire) persuades her to seek God by working in a garden. He eventually persuades her to abandon her quest, settle down with a "coarse" red-headed Irishman and rear a "charmingly coffee-coloured" family.

Dolls were produced in different styles, wearing different clothes, and with subtle variations (mostly in painting) that individualize and particularize each. Asymmetrical and made of hard vinyl with elastic stringing enabling them to take poses, Sasha dolls are characterized by a serious, open expression that seems to make them more adaptable to imaginative play than if they were forever smiling. Morgenthaler's original idea was for the dolls to represent an image of universal childhood, so from the beginning of mass- production, the vinyl was coffee-coloured so that they would not appear to belong to any one ethnic group.

They were repeated in 1982 on Channel 4. Another 1958 Farson series, entitled Keeping in Step, looked at establishment institutions such as public schools from a distinctly more distanced perspective than that seen on virtually all BBC programmes (and even most other Associated-Rediffusion programmes) of the time. A regular guest on Farson's programmes at this stage was James Wentworth Day, a reactionary British writer of the Agrarian Right school, who commented in the programme about mixed marriages, referring to mixed-race children as "coffee-coloured little imps" and argued that black people must be less "civilised" than white people because "a couple of generations ago they were eating each other" (Wentworth Day's remarks were featured in Victor Lewis-Smith's series Buygones and TV Offal). Farson would usually respond to these diatribes with a polite statement along the lines of "I couldn't disagree with you more, but at least you do say what you really feel".

Wentworth Day briefly achieved minor public notice during 1957 and 1958, when he performed as the resident reactionary in Daniel Farson's television series for the company Associated-Rediffusion, most famously Out of Step and People in Trouble.Robin Carmody, Daniel Farson Farson stated that he did not agree with Wentworth Day's sentiments, which were perceived as racist and xenophobic by many people even during the 1950s (in the programme People in Trouble during a discussion concerning mixed marriages Wentworth Day referred to "coffee-coloured little imps" and claimed that black people must be "inferior" because "in many cases their grandfathers were eating each other"), Farson usually chuckled along with the comments and ended them with a remark similar to "I completely disagree with you, but at least you say what you really feel". However, Wentworth Day was soon dismissed from Farson's series after he claimed, while contributing to a programme concerningtransvestism, that all homosexuals should be hanged. Farson, a homosexual, was afraid Wentworth Day might get him into legal trouble (homosexual acts being illegal in the UK at the time) and insisted that the programme about transvestism be omitted, theoretically because the Independent Television Authority would ban it anyway.
