Coffee alternatives from cotton going clockwise are: cotton seed, chicory (endive) root, acorn, sunflower, and in the center, sweet potato.

Chicory is a French addition to coffee that predates the Civil War. It can be used as a full-on substitute, but more commonly is mixed.

Cotton seeds, acorns, sunflower husks (not shown) and sweet potato can be roasted, dried and used as a substitute when the going gets tough.

  • The concept described here is what us homebuilders call "make up air." In a tight envelope, when you need to exhaust air, you have to forcibly introduce fresh air to make up the difference. Otherwise your envelope (home) will sit in a vacuum and air won't move anywhere.

    Usually, there is only one window in a bathroom. If you have a fan, turn it on and open the window and it should disappate quickly. If you only have the window and no fan, punch a hole through the drywall to the next room, preferably close to the baseboard for optimal airflow. I assume you are at your "special friend's house" and trying to hook up. Wait a few minutes and it should clear. Hope this helps!
