There was a part of the video where I swear I saw a pair of
legs, protruding through the floor of the pick-up, running
like crazy. You don't suppose.? If my eyes weren't fooling
me then I want to drink the coffee that guy is drinking!

Coffee husks (silverskin) are paper thin so pelletizing
makes sense. Spend grounds would also be available.

A few years ago a company here supplied two 25 kWe gasifiers
for coffee husks (silverskin) to Costa Rica. I saw the husks
and the gasifier but never saw it run and wasn't invited
back. We understand that the gasifiers in Costa Rica never
operated.

I need to correct my reply. At 5:20 of the video he states
that they are using the chaff.

They are using used coffee grounds that are pelletized. It
is shown on some of their other videos.

In one small segment they mention that the fuel is "coffee
pellets" which
presumably are pellets made from spent coffee.
I think he's using coffee husks.
