I attended a coffee cupping about two months ago and as we were wrapping up/cleaning up, the discussion of the use of new and used coffee grounds was brought up. Besides the obvious "drip" or portafilter uses, a couple of off the wall uses were voiced.
A few of them were...
Washing hands
Washing face
Garden use
Throwing used "pucks" at each other in an espresso war.
And showering. Yes, showering. Apparently using coffee in your hair will help keep the shine.
I was wondering if anyone else had any, or heard of any other uses for your grinds...
