I believe the answer is:

sacrifices

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'offerings that have been burnt perhaps' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'cafe crisis brewing?' is the wordplay.
'brewing?' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'brew' mean this).
'cafe'+'crisis'='cafecrisis'
'cafecrisis' is an anagram of 'SACRIFICES'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sacrifices that I've seen before include "Things given up" , "Forfeits" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
