Coffee roasting was prevalent in Turkey in 1540's. One book had coffee introduced in Turkey around 1480. Another book had coffee in Turkey in the times of the Crusades. Roasting began around Damascus because Damascus iron easily handled the thermal characteristics which were required for roasting. Well, iron pan style roasters any way. The first iron made roasters were more like big frying pans with lids. In many countries, the common frying pan is still in use and working great today. Frying a coffee bean tends to sear the bean and doesn't give an even penetrating roast. Searing the coffee bean helps retains much of the moisture and oils content, in contrast roasting dries the coffee bean out.

Coffee Bean: Calgary Alberta Canada
Coffee beans have bean eaten raw for centuries in Ethiopia and Yemen. An excavation in the Ethiopian highlands where coffee grows wild indicates human gathers have been eating coffee berries over a hundred thousand years. The fleshy pulp around the coffee bean in Ethiopian coffee has high sugar content. Being sweet, being nutritious, and seeds, nuts, grapes and berries being generally eaten by humans for over a million years sort of supports this theory.
Ugandans were noticed chewing dried coffee beans when the first explorers from Europe were searching for the origin of the Nile River. Green coffee beans were ground up and mixed with fat, then made into small balls, which were eaten by travelers on long journeys. Some say this is the first trail mix.
Stories in the Southern Arabian Peninsula known as Yemen where Europeans first found the coffee plant cultivated support the coffee bean being traded in early 800 BC. Facts support trade between Yemen and Ethiopia during this time. Knowing the coffee berries reacted releasing great energy when ingested by themselves, it would be logical that those early traders would attempt to trade this item. Additionally, evidence does not support the coffee plant would grow wild in Yemen but was cultivated instead. Although, it is possible that a lost larger size bird could have carried the coffee berries that far, it is not likely.
No specific historic event is involved in coffee arriving in Southern Arabia but Ethiopia did invaded Southern Arabia in 525 AD. Many speculate that coffee could have been introduced to Arabia at this time. Some historians say coffee was introduced into Arabia by slave traders who raided Africa as early as 1000 BC.
The two things that support the theory that coffee spread very early in civilized trade are coffee's affect on people and many old Arabian stories.

LING ZHI Reishi Ganoderma Lucidum
Red Reishi Mushroom / Ganoderma lucidum / Ling Zhi: 'Red Reishi Mushroom General Information
Even though there are several different colors of Reishi mushrooms, Red Reishi is the one that is most well known and used. For over 4000 years, Red Reishi mushrooms have been most revered in traditional Chinese medicine equaling ginseng as a premier substance for the attainment of radiant health, longevity, and spiritual attainment. Traditionally, Reishi has been used as an anti-aging herb to treat many diseases and disorders. Daoist traditionalists rever this mushroom as the elixir of immortality, claiming it promotes calmness, centeredness, balance, and inner awareness and strength. Reishi contains sterols, coumarin, mannitol, polysaccharides, and triterpenoids called ganoderic acids. It is thought that ganoderic acid lowers blood pressure, LDL (low density lipoprotein cholesterol), and triglyceride levels. Those triterpenoids also play an important role in lowering the risk of coronary artery disease.'"
