Can MF Coffee Grounds be used as fuel for cars?

 

Good evening to all the MF Products supporters, today is going to be a very different blog as we touch on a peculiar use of coffee. Over the months we’ve looked at a variety of ways in which coffee can be utilised. We’ve seen how it can be used for fertiliser, for your skin and even your hair! Today is going to blow your mind however it turns out coffee grounds can be used as an alternative fuel for your car.

Studies have shown that coffee grounds hold within them special oils that can be used as a source of fuel. It’s been said that the oil is similar to corn and soybean oil. Lately, researchers at Lancaster University have been studying this process, working to make it simpler and less pricey. Their improved approach takes roughly 10 minutes and can be completed without the use of harmful, stripping chemicals – adding to its eco-friendly appeal. This is interesting use as it means that we (as a society) are closer to using used products for a better purpose.



The average American drinks 3.1 cups of coffee a day and only consume 80% of each cup. Scientists and analysts have hypothesised that with that spare 20%, the wasted ground could be put to good use for this alternative fuel method. It’s said that 720,000 metric tons of bio-diesel fuel could be produced with the oils from the coffee grounds.

Does coffee help with headaches?

Good evening everyone, its another blog by MF Products and today we’re going to be looking at something slightly different. Today, the MF Products Team was riddled with headaches and someone asked “I wonder if there’s a drink that could resolve this pain” which got us thinking. Since coffee, especially MF Coffee (which is available to purchase now), has so many benefits maybe there’s a chance it can cure headaches too. Here’s what we found. We realised that when your head hurts or aches, people generally want a fast relief as the pain can be tedious. Caffeine is usually found in many painkillers and has statistically shown them to be 40% more effective with caffeine as opposed to without it. Actually, there are reports that the consumption of caffeine has even stopped the pain directly after. Which begs the question, could MF Coffee resolve your headache? Headaches can usually occur due to inflammation of the brain; caffeine’s main superpower is to reduce inflammation it does th...
