Ten Ways to Recycle Coffee Grounds

I'm always amazed at the information I find online. Today I discovered numerous ways to recycle coffee grounds, along with some rather unusual ideas as well. Enjoy!

1. Mix the grounds with water to provide your houseplants with an "energized" drink. Plants need the nutrients found in coffee grounds, including nitrogen and potassium, both common ingredients in store-bought fertilizer. Using organic grounds will provide a healthier and happier plant environment!
2. Sprinkle used grounds on your outdoor plants.
3. Sprinkle a ring of used grounds around a tree or plantings to deter ants.
4. Use slightly damp grounds on icy steps and sidewalks. The grounds stick to the ice, creating a safer walking surface.
5. Pour a few grounds down your drains to gently scrape the sides of the pipes. Do not use if pipes are already slow draining or clogged.
6. Use to scrub gunk off surfaces such as grills and greasy pans. Use wet or dry grounds.
7. Keep a container of dried coffee grounds in a shaker near the kitchen sink. Use to scrub strong odors such as fish, garlic and onion, from your hands.
8. Wet your face and scrub with one tablespoon coffee grounds. This is a gentle exfoliating wash for your face.
9. Use steeped grounds and a cotton swab to touch up furniture scratches.
10. Coffee grounds are a great addition to any compost pile. Just throw them into your compost bin, filter and all.

Be sure to check out the JavaLog ~ Voted "One of the Coolest Inventions" by TIME Magazine. Rumor has it you can make these yourself by mixing coffee grounds with candle wax and forming it into a log. If you attempt it, let us know how it works out!

I go through bags of coffee and trying to come up with ingenious uses for leftover or recycling the coffee grounds. There's some more ingenious uses for reusing those spent grinds here:
http://michelle-dompierre-southern.suite101.com/15-creative-uses-for-leftover-coffee-a211279. Another cool thing is using it in skin treatment as a body scrub, a little odd I know - but seems to work
So don't throw those grinds away folks! Recycle!

Use a dictionary and grammar guide constantly. Keep a small English dictionary with you at all time. When you see a new word, look it up. Think about the word - use it, in your mind, in a sentence.

sorry, but your claim about using organic coffee, is it something that has been tested. I used to swear by organics, until my birds all died when fed organic spinach. It turns out, organic plants have more pestecide in them then non-organics, since the plants have to develop their own "natural" pesticides to ward of invaders....could this be harmful to humans? I know there are some people doing research on this.
