Combine and Heat:
Place the ground coffee and oil in a saucepan.
Heat the mixture over low heat for about 30-60 minutes. Make sure not to boil the oil; a gentle heat will suffice to infuse the oil without burning the coffee.
Strain the Mixture:
After heating, let the oil cool slightly.
Strain the mixture through a cheesecloth or fine mesh strainer to remove all the coffee grounds. Squeeze or press to extract as much oil as possible.
Store It Properly:
