Coffee Ground Pellet

Biomass pellets from spent coffee grounds, pressed into a dense, uniform fuel for industrial use.

Why pellet it

Loose coffee grounds are awkward to handle: bulky, wet, and impossible to feed automatically. Pressed into pellets, they become a fuel that can be stored, transported, and fed through an auger system like wood pellets.

The increase in density also means more energy per cubic metre of storage — something that shows up directly in logistics cost.

Specification

• Feedstock spent coffee grounds
• Form pellet
• Application industrial fuel and heating

Who it suits

Biomass boilers, industrial heating, and dryers already running on solid fuel. If your system currently runs wood pellets, coffee-ground pellets can serve as an alternative or a blend — but the ash behaves differently, so testing on your own equipment is not a formality.

What to test before committing

Coffee grounds produce ash with a different character from wood. On a boiler running continuously, that affects the cleaning schedule. We recommend a trial at small volume first, watching ash behaviour across several cycles, before switching your whole supply.

Tell us your equipment specification and monthly consumption, and we will prepare a sample at a volume large enough for a meaningful test — not a handful.
