I just discovered more ways to use coffee cherries

Drying coffee beans at home

We have ten coffee bushes and I have just picked a bucket of coffee cherries. The flesh is now deseeded of beans and chucked in the worm farm. I wondered if the cherry flesh could be used for jam and discovered a whole new use for the coffee husks/flesh.

Coffee Flour^™ is…

"…An agricultural innovation with the potential to do some really great things for the world. And we don’t just mean the food world.

Each year the billions of coffee beans that eventually make their way into the Americanos, lattes, and no-foam, extra-hot, triple-shot cappuccinos of the world are harvested by milling and extracting them from the coffee plant. The surrounding fruit, is discarded. It often gets dumped into rivers or left to rot in heaps. So we invented something better to do with it. Something that’s better for everyone."
