We gladly add our coffee grounds to our compost pile. Our garden loves it.

I have also found fresh coffee grounds to be useful when selling candles. I would have my customers take a whiff of coffee in-between candle scents so their noses did not get confused.

Kyle, great article. I never thought of using coffee grinds as an exfoliant before. Thank you for the idea. I usually compost all of my grounds.

Cheers,

PS ~ coffee is great in spice cake and carrot cake too, not just chocolate!
