Millions of bleary-eyed Americans who fumble around in the morning owe a lot to someone they never heard of -- James H. Mason of Franklin, Massachusetts. This month in 1865, he received a patent for a coffee percolator, making it much easier than it had been to brew just the right cup of coffee to get started in the morning. Now, not only does just about every home in the U.S. have a coffeemaker, but many also grind their own fresh from coffee beans. And the percolator has grown into big coffee machines, seen in most offices and a seemingly ever-growing number of retail coffee shops. It's clear that Americans love their coffee. We each consume more than 24 gallons of regular and decaf a year. You can find these and more facts about America from the U.S. Census Bureau online.
