    Roast your own coffee?

    I love coffee, but I don't drink enough at home to make buying pre-roasted coffee effective since it takes me several weeks to go through a half-pound. Since I am getting tired of having my coffee go stale on me before I can use it, I was thinking about roasting my own. Does any one here roast...

    Scrapple

    Since everyone seems to want to talk about strange foods, how many here like scrapple? I'm curious if this is even available outside of Pennsylvania.

    Oil usage increase with miles on oil?

    I did a search on this but couldn't find anything: My car as always burned oil as long as I have owned it, but I have recently noticed a trend in how it burns the oil. When I first change the oil, it will go about 300 miles before I need to add any for top up - about 4-8oz. During the next 300...

    AutoRx use in severe oil burner?

    I have a '91 Honda Prelude with the B21 engine which is known on the Honda forums as being an oil burner. I currently have 177k miles on it and it has burned oil for as long as I have had it (purchased with 107k). It doesn't smoke at all unless it idles for more than 5 minutes and has no...
