- Scouring pots and pans: Use coffee grounds to remove gunk from pots and pans. Coffee grounds are abrasive but still soft enough to be used safely, without damaging your favourite pans. Rinse well afterwards.
- Keep your fridge smelling fresh: Place a small container of coffee grounds in the fridge to absorb odours.
- A natural exfoliator: Coffee grounds make an excellent exfoliating body scrub. Just add used grounds to a bit of warm water or your favourite oil – such as coconut or sweet almond.
- Make soap: Make a simple soap by melting a bar of glycerine soap and then adding approximately 1/3 cup of grounds. The mixture can then be reshaped into a bar that is great for exfoliating and scrubbing.
