How to recycle used coffee grinds
22/09/11 1:25 PM
Here's a few ideas on recycling your used coffee grinds.
Use as compost or fertilizer. Grounds are nutrient dense and will aid in plant growth…especially those plants that like acidic soil.
Put on anthills or around plant bases in order to repel bugs, slugs, snails, and mites.
Sprinkle grounds in garden or in potted plants where the cat may be tempted to go.
When grounds are steeped, they can be used as a dye for fabric and paper; it also acts as a stain if needed for touch-ups on furniture.
Can be rubbed on hands to get rid of odors from food prep, or dried and put in the fridge or freezer to absorb odours.
and, we love this one...
Use it as a sunscreen, as mentioned in our previous blog, applying coffee to the skin has been shown to help prevent non-melanoma cancer in a recent study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences in America, the Herald Sun reported on 16 August.
