Study of Influential Parameters of the Caffeine Extraction From clean technologies Article Study of Influential Parameters of the Caffeine Extraction from Spent Coffee Grounds: From Brewing Coffee Method to the Waste Treatment Conditions Alexandre Vandeponseele, Micheline Draye , Christine Piot and Gregory Chatel * EDYTEM, University Savoie Mont Blanc, CNRS, F-73000 Chambéry, France; [email protected] (A.V.); [email protected] (M.D.); [email protected] (C.P.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: This article aims to study the interest of spent coffee grounds (SCG) valorization through caffeine recovery. In an original way, this study takes into account all the parameters such as (i) the brewing coffee methods (household, coffee shops, etc.); (ii) the storage conditions, in particular the drying step; (iii) the solid/liquid extraction parameters such as the nature of solvent, the temperature, the extraction time and the solid/liquid ratio; and (iv) the liquid/liquid purification parameters such as the nature, the volume and the pH of extraction medium. Results have shown that spent coffee grounds from coffee-shops obtained by percolation contain a higher amount of caffeine than spent coffee grounds from households obtained from spent pods or filters. A drying treatment is not required when extraction is performed under one week after the spent coffee grounds collection −1 with 96.4% of not degraded caffeine.

Dear tired college students, There are a ton of e-books about coffee out there, and they all start with the same thing: “Coffee has a rich heritage brewed in years of science, steeped in tradition, and spiced by entrepreneurs and artists alike.” Or something like that. The truth is that for most of us in high school or college, coffee is not an art. We don’t have time to craft the perfect blend of java and espresso and milk foam. Sometimes we don’t even have time to rinse out our travel mugs between uses. That’s why coffee chains like Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts make a killing on us: they spend a small fraction of what they charge us for coffee, and we’re too busy with our books and phones and laptops to notice. Unfortunately, most of us can’t spend $3 or $4 for coffee every day, what with our student loans, $200 textbooks, and car insurance payments.
