Study finds coffee raises cholesterol levels – but depends on how it's brewed

The effect appears to be pretty small, even when drinking 6+ cups of coffee/day. It's also not clear that this increase in cholesterol is unhealthy, considering cholesterol has a positive (and necessary) effect on our bodies and not all cholesterol increases risk of heart disease.

Coffee still shows an inverse correlation with all-cause mortality[1].
