Worth noticing
The proposed 12-week pilot starts with wet grounds from three cafés and tracks net climate impact per kilogram processed.

Field notes

The project describes a batch-based workflow: café grounds are separated at source, logged, and routed according to accumulated volume before drying and extraction. Its pilot planning specifies three café sources and flags solvent safety, electricity use, transport distance, and process losses as constraints to measure. The site proposes tracking net climate impact per kilogram processed; it does not show pilot results.
