Coffee replaces diesel?

Postby technojock » Mon Jan 12, 2009 9:02 am

Just came across this in Yahoo!

http://uk.cars.yahoo.com/09012009/36/co ... sel-0.html

...where it's suggested that coffee can be used to make biodiesel. Even better, used coffee grounds can be used. Start saving the pucks from your Espresso machines... :D

I can give you a few addresses of places that serve coffee that tastes like diesel. That saves the middle man.

I decided I needed a bit of a change so I roasted some Monsooned Malabar. That was a change!

Since when has posting on TMC been used as a gauge of being in one's right mind? :lol:

I was rather surprised to learn that anyone even thought that I had ever been "all right." But thanks, Aadje, anyway. I appreciate it. Yes, I'm happily doing pretty well again. :D

In which case, I'd be sorry to see Bruce confined once again with the rest of us! :wink:

Well, it might not have been the best way of putting it, but I meant well.
