Throw in the coffee can and you have the "Mr. Fusion" from Back to the Future I.

I request that someone post the image of Doc fueling the "Mr. Fusion".

I eat my coffee grinds.
Well, they go into the compost pile with everything else - that gets put in my vegetable gardens - and, um, then I eat the coffee grinds....

You can make fuel out of just about anything.

If you’re willing to pay the additional price.

The challenge is producing fuel that is cost-effective.

“Oil can be extracted from coffee grounds....”

.
Now why should we even attempt to do it when we’re sitting on many billions of barrels of crude oil.

Has anyone calculated the cost of producing one barrel of oil from coffee grounds vs. that from the ground? And please make the calcs based on BTU value of production cost and consumer value.

Great timing. The cost of coffee is supposed to start sky rocketing.
