You have a very soothing voice. Great tips.

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

I love how you really try to reduce waste... that is great! The face scrub idea idea is GENIUS!

[@MadameMinima]

Unfortunately we still produce "too much" waste, in my opinion. But there is work in progress. 😉

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

Madame Minima Yes, we are all trying!

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

ok, I really loved that you got your sink clean with coffee grounds!

[@MadameMinima]

Sometimes the simplest things work the best. I had to try it myself to believe it.

[@NoshiAbid]

This is an awesome sharing 👍🙏

[@pamiam9017]

My daughter works in a bar, I could probably get the old grounds fri\om her. The deodoraiser for shoes is a brilliant tip since I have a teen age boy and their feet STINK, not to mention their rooms. Thanks for another great video Pats

[@MadameMinima]

Oh, I am sure you could get some there. But just make sure if you want to use it that way to dry the grounds, otherwise, you risk to have a mess afterwards. 🥴

[@ThePandaClan]

Great ideas!! I never thought to use it in my sink! I use them for my toddlers diaper pals🤣🤣

[@oaklynrehns]

you are a delight!

[@bhavanarao6602]

Very nice tips...nicely explained..👍

[@MadameMinima]

Thanks for this positive feedback! What way are you trying to reuse your old coffee grounds?

[@bhavanarao6602]

I am using them for my plants as they increase the nitrogen content in soil and also in my melt and pour soaps.. :)

[@MadameMinima]

@@bhavanarao6602 do you make your own soaps?? I am planing to start making soap bars.

[@bhavanarao6602]

Ya...even I too used them in my melt and pour soap...it turned out beautiful

[@NoshiAbid]

Nice sharing 👍

[@MadameMinima]

Thank you 🥰

[@liamc-rb9tz]

Thank you for the wonderful ideas, never thought about this, definitely worth trying out, ❤️👏🇮🇪

[@MadameMinima]

Thanks for your positive feedback. If you find any other way to reuse old coffee grounds, please let me know. BTW are you from Ireland?

[@liamc-rb9tz]

@@MadameMinima ,🙂👍🇮🇪, yes from Ireland 🌝

[@MadameMinima]

@@liamc-rb9tz That's awesome! Hubby and I have been recently looking to buy a house (an old cottage) in Ireland. I have found 3 that I really like, but I am still hesitant. It's a great step to leave everything behind and to move countries. We would love to start to live more simply and most of all self-sufficient.

[@liamc-rb9tz]

@@MadameMinima yes it's a huge decision to make, hope you'll be happy if ye decide to move here, whereabout are the houses ye are looking at. I live in Co, Kerry, 🖐️🖐️🖐️😁

[@MadameMinima]

@@liamc-rb9tz Sorry I must have missed your reply. So there are only 2 left, one is in Bruree and the other one is in Derrinkeher. It's rather hard to find what we are looking for.

[@arawsandiego9903]

This is the video that I needed to watch! My coffee grounds are piling up and looking for ways to repurpose, reuse, or recycle them. Thanks!

[@MadameMinima]

Happy this video can be helpful. What are you going to use your coffee grounds for? What tip is most helpful to you?

[@arawsandiego9903]

@@MadameMinima Planning to use it for gardening and bathroom deodorizer

[@MadameMinima]

@@arawsandiego9903 I will start gardening in a few weeks....when the weather gets warmer. Happy gardening 🧡

[@arawsandiego9903]

@@MadameMinima Looking forward to seeing your gardening journey. Would be nice if you could make a video about it

[@terfalikasa7104]

thank you so much am very satisficed in your video teaching. so am university students in agriculture am interested improve my knowledge around coffee grounds then if you voluntary you can help me !

[@ilikehatz]

Starbucks package their grounds and people can pick them up free. (Or at least, they used to) I sprinkle all my coffee grounds on my plants outside. Roses love them. I also compost all the veggie/fruit waste like peals, pits, seeds, and also paper & leaves compost very well.

[@MadameMinima]

SUPER! 👍 Yes, it's good that you mentioned the paper for the compost. Always put browns between the greens!!!!

[@LavendarSheep]

Brilliant, Patz! I will most definitely try a couple of those, at least. We're big coffee drinkers at home and it always seems like such a waste to just throw that out.

[@MadameMinima]

So these tips just came in handy 😉. Which one are you going to try?

[@LavendarSheep]

@@MadameMinima Yes! I'll try to use coffee for cleaning and deodorizing in fridge and bin!

[@sungazersal5209]

hi, do I need to put the used coffee ground in the oven to dry? or I can use them straight out of a moka pot when I'm done?

[@MadameMinima]

If you want to keep them for a longer time, it would be preferable to dry them first to avoid mold.

[@sungazersal5209]

@@MadameMinima thanks

[@AFrugalLifeTheChannel]

What a great idea! You seem so sweet, Looking forward to more videos!

[@MadameMinima]

Oh this is so kind 🥰 Have you already tried one of these tips? Or do you have perhaps another tip for us?

[@AFrugalLifeTheChannel]

@@MadameMinima I'm definitely going to try the coffee grounds in the garden tip.

[@MadameMinima]

@@AFrugalLifeTheChannel Oh I wish I had a larger garden, I only have this small raised bed and an old trash bin where I am currently growing potatoes in. I envy you 😍

[@Frugal101]

Great video i am a frugal person myself 😊 new Subbie here

[@MadameMinima]

Oh, hi and welcome. So you may have some more tips for us? 😉

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

We don't drink coffee... but I have used coffee in the fridge as a deodorizer!

[@MadameMinima]

Well I get my used coffee grounds from the bakery next door....as you know I am team TEA 😂

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

Madame Minima That is so funny! You aren’t even using your own waste!

[@alingjeprox7610]

doesn’t coffee grounds clogs the drain?

[@MadameMinima]

Sorry, for being late with my answer. I never had problems with it until now. 👍

[@michelletackett9489]

I am not a coffee drinker myself.

[@MadameMinima]

No need to drink yourself coffee in order to benefit from the good uses, because I am team tea, so I don't drink coffee either. Simply go to a bakery or a starbuckish coffee shop and ask for their used coffee grounds. They are happy if you take some 🤗

[@rachelamundsen8265]

Should not be used as a face scrub. No! Too coarse! Bad advice. Don’t do it please. You do micro-trauma to your own skin.

[@MadameMinima]

Thanks for your feedback. But I hope you don't mind if I do not agree. I am now 52 years old and I have been using it for years now and my skin has never been smoother. I wish I had known this when I was a teenager with pimples.
