(CNN) -- The Home of the Whopper is pushing to become coffee central. Burger King is doubling the amount of  coffee beverages it sells from five to ten.

The chain spent nearly a year developing the new line with Seattle's Best, which is owned by Starbucks. So, every time a consumer purchases a cup of coffee at Burger King, Starbucks makes a profit.

Beginning this week, BK is replacing its current brewed coffee with a smoother Seattle's Best blend. It also will have new decaf and new hot chocolate beverages.

The latte roll out begins in March.
