    Hi Karla,

    It’s a good question, and not something that we’ve tried ourselves before so I’m afraid. A couple of potential issues that I could see would be:

    – The coffee may become very wet and saturated upon soaking, which may not be soa easy to drain off and could cause problems in the grow bags later

    – If the coffee is a few days old and has already developed contaminant mould growth, this may not be effectively killed off by the lime soak

    You never know until you try these things though, so if you do give it a go then please do let us know how you get on.

    best wishes,

    Adam

    So Adam, does that mean sterilize the straw with boiling water will be the solution?

    Ted, I’ve tried pasteurize coffee grounds 2 days old with boiling water for a few hours and it did work. But, you really need something to compress the coffee for draining water.
