How A Company In Berlin Is Turning Coffee Grounds Into Reusable Cups

Ғылым және технология

Kaffeeform, a Berlin-based start-up, has been creating coffee cups from recycled coffee grounds for the past three years. With the help of courier services, the company picks up used coffee grounds from cafés all across Berlin to create these eco-friendly cups. We learn how the founder, Julian Lechner, got started and how he makes his products.

    One would need the ability to use coffee and dry it themselves at home before bringing it back. Otherwise people will not bring it, since it molds before they go to the store agan. The company would need to figure out a way to do that that isn't very expensive and easy to transport. And you need a reward system too. Something like, bring two dried and used kilos and get one fresh one back. Something like this.

    The difference is that people don't usually go to the grocery store often or on a whim; they usually plan a trip to the store and so can be expected to bring some reusable bags with them. It doesn't really make sense for people to lug around a cup with them everywhere in case they happen to pop in somewhere for coffee. Unfortunately there's no perfect solution for this and there will invariably be at least some compromise. 🤷

But it's not usually advertised and some bakeries only apply the discount if it's a cup with their logo. There are also local differences, some local governments encourage ecofriendlyness and demand shops to sell single use cups for 30ct, when they're filled. But that's just Germany, I don't know what it's like elsewhere.

    Well, I wouldn't be too sure about benefiting the environment. What they are doing is using coffee grounds as a filler in some sort of biodegradable plastic. What sort? They didn't exactly go into details there. The specifics matter a whole lot here if you want to know the net environmental effect. Could be a pretty good product, could be a total gimmick. Anyone wanna try actually composting these things to see how well they decompose? And Marc has a point, they are running an ridiculously inefficient operation by the looks of it and their prices are outright ridiculous. A hipster fad, not a world saver the way they are doing it.

    Aiden Ross Yeah exactly! The British government did a lifecycle analysis of consumer bags to find out the polluting potential of various options. What they found was that standard plastic bags actually pollute the least. In fact, for even a paper bag to pollute as little per use as a plastic bag it had to be used 3 to 4 times (reusable bags were about 15 uses and cotton bags were over 100!). This is because the production of the bags were by far the largest source of their pollution when considering the whole lifecycle (pre-use, use and post-use). So the takeaway is that we need to focus on not producing so much stuff and reusing the stuff we do as much as possible. Recycling is the third step in "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" for good reason. Thanks for bringing this up Debojit!

    Between 14.90 and 22.90€ per mug (depending on the cup/ mug type and size and a saucer is always included. Purchasing larger amounts (as a café for example gives ya better prices.). According to their website they are usable for several years without any problems and are can be washed in a dishwasher. They are not only made out of coffee grounds, but also biopolymers, cellulose, wood, natural oils, natural wax, natural resin and natural starch. They are apparently just as durable as normal mugs, just a bit more resistant go shocks, like being dropped on the ground.

    The cups do crack after a while. They are also absorb foreign smells, like the dishwasher. Sounds great, but it makes your coffee taste like shit. The carbon footprint for these cups would be the same as a very good coffee cup. I have some ACF italian cups that are 15 years old in my cafe. They are still looking great!! Bad luck that ACF are no longer around. Environmentally friendly would be using a waste that is useless. Coffee grinds make great compost. No way they as durable in a commercial environment and it makes the coffee taste like hay. Then once they get old, it only gets worst. A good cup is key, in making a great coffee.

It's a nice idea but I just think when you're using waste as a construction material, you should be charging consumers LESS than the price of a cup which doesn't use waste. Otherwise it's just profiteering off of society's fears about global warming.
