Coffee Flour

I was wondering if anyone has experimented with coffee flour yet?  I just picked up a pound to play with.  They suggest a 1:10 ratio with regular flour.  Not exactly sure what I'll bake with it today, might try a sourdough.  You can find some info on coffee flour at http://www.coffeeflour.com (no sales there, just info).

Thanks for posting.. I took a look at the site, and watch the explanatory video. I get it, it's edible and therefore food. But just because something's edible, do I want to eat it? I'm not sure in this case. I can see using it in cookies, as in the chocolate coffee cookie recipe on the site. But I don't think I'd see myself adding it to a bread.. but never say never.. Looking forward to your results!

sorry for the delay in responding.  I've been traveling 

Adding the coffee flour was unmemorable.  I used added some brown sugar and raisen,  the crumb was considerably more dense than the control.  The flavor, while different, was not something I'd promote. My family destroyed the control, leaving the coffee loaf sitting.
