coffee fuel - larsalan - 07-23-2013

Don't throw those coffee grounds out in the garden. You may well be able to turn them into fuel. So, spent coffee grounds are 13% oil? By volume or molar mass or some scientific measurement.
And some other scientists say they can pull out 98% of that 13% into pure coffee-diesel

and also the same thing here...
