Summary
COI synopsis: In the manufacture of instant coffee, the waste from making it soluable or "instant" used to be burned or buried. Now it has been discovered that this waste contains oil, an essential but expensive ingredient in cattle food. Our cameras show how the waste can be dried to get the oil and mixed straight away with other cattle food to provide a balanced diet.
