What is a Scoffee cup? A coffee cup made of cookie. Comming soon to a U.K. KFC close to you.

   KFC has joined forces with The Robin Collective's U.K. food scientists to create the "Scoffee" cups. The Scoffee cups are cookie cups that are "wrapped in sugar paper and lined with a layer of  white chocolate," the U.K. press is saying today. The cup has an outer wrapper with the KFC's logo, on it so the cup looks just like a regular like coffee cup

  Scoffee cups sound nice in theory, until you hear about their "aromas": A spokesperson for The Robin Collective told the U.K. Press that the cups are infused with scents including "Coconut Sun Cream, Freshly Cut Grass, and Wild Flowers." The scents are meant to send the "positive memories associated with warm weather,"

  For now, at least, the Scoffee cups will only be available at KFC locations in the U.K.  The cups have yet to be released tho. With a launch date of this summer at selected U.K. KFC locations.

Weather /climate change and your coffee

Weather unpredictability/climate change is a leading factor in  future coffee prices. Making the small coffee grower looking to expand their land used to cultivate coffee.    Felling of rain forests will accelerate current trends in a changing climate. adding even more unpredictability to coffee supplies and future prices.   With the current world price at 90 cents a pound is making profitability in many countries nearly impossible With production cost at about $1.50 per pound.   The shortest answer is to grow more coffee witch takes more land, ,fewer trees, more c02, additional climate effects .   Climate change and general weather unpredictability are one of the driving forces in the roller coaster ride coffee prices are having and will likely continue to have in the foreseeable  future. Perhaps second only to the never ending political unrest in many coffee growing regions. 

Blind Coffee Chain Taste Test

Used coffee grounds can help stop global warming.

  With the environment in the news lately. Here is one you didn't see coming. Used coffee grounds are very good at storing Methane.   Methane is a global warming gas many times more potent that carbon dioxide.With Methane having one advantage over Carbon Dioxide. That is Methane can be used as a fuel.   The process to make this work is relative simple with the moist used coffee grounds being heated with potassium hydroxide.   So who cares you may be asking yourself. While It's not likely your local power company will be digging around in your trash ben for your used coffee grounds in order to capture and store their Methane emissions.   Some smaller producers of Methane emissions may have some interest. Many oil wells also produce small amounts of natural gas. The volume of gas is so small that it's uneconomical to lay the needed pipe in order to place this gas into the natural gas lines that heat your home. So this g...
