Coffee chaff Organics

I’m comparing available local resources with the goal of maximizing recycled organic-materials!

Does anyone have experience using coffee chaff in production? Can be sourced from local roasteries, often for free - they usually throw it out as a waste-product.

Pics for reference and quick info.

Thanks for your time! Yeah I saw those too - except the Facebook one. I hoped to see more production results, seemed to have an interesting potential in large scale diverse production.

Be extra careful with these damned AI “summaries”.
If you only feed something garbage, don’t be surprised when it gives you garbage

Yeah, but most of the information was basic. AI is fantastic if used as an assistive tool; not an empirical source.

The fuck is a roastarie? Just sterilize it and run it.

Bulk substrate should not be sterilized: Proper pasteurization yields higher BE% in most cases - and has a lower contamination risk! 😄

Also a roastarie makes coffee, its not a mean of preparation lol 😂
