Under the terms of the now repealed Adulteration of Coffee Act 1718, a 20 pound fine was levied against evil-disposed persons, who at the time or soon after roasting of coffee, make use of water, grease, butter, or such like material whereby the same is made unwholesome. It also explicitly banned traders from mixing sheep dung in with their coffee.
