Jun 2, 2014 at 22:17 comment added Yoni @AvramLevitt Rav Yosef Karo lived in the 16th century, so the theory is consistent with the Shelah's citation of the Shavuos night story with Rav Yosef Karo and et al from Zefat. Even if the custom spread after coffee became available, the origin of the minhag is from the midrash cited. There is no contradiction here.

Jun 2, 2014 at 22:02 comment added PixelArtDragon It's a nice theory, but we have textual evidence (not sure where, but google it) that Rav Yosef Cairo started the custom of staying up on Shavuot night.
