Coffee Filters and the Cleaner-Burning VW Diesel

May 27th, 2009 · No Comments · Coffee Science, Environmentalism

Here is an ad for Volkswagon’s new “cleaner diesel.” I include this because they use coffee filters to measure which diesel engine runs cleaner. At the end of the experiment they make coffee with the soiled filters for added effect… one of the guys (apparently) thought he would have to drink it.

I’ve heard diesel engines are better in a lot of ways than regular gasoline. I’m holding out for the straight up electric car.
