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.

@madgirlbitchingboutstuffs4344 5 лет назад

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.

@pragmax 5 лет назад

Assuming they're not using anything hard or expensive to source (aside from coffee grounds), that could be a good thing. Instead of one massive company making these for the world, we could have hundreds or thousands of small localized operations like this, everywhere. That means more employment, in more places.

@CAG2 5 лет назад

@@pragmax But then those "small localised operations" can't benefit from economies of scale, which would allow for the cheaper manufacture of this product. And, even if the product is just a little more expensive than the existing alternative, businesses will refuse to switch because on a large scale; even a difference of one cent can add up to hundreds of thousands of additional costs.

@user-vn7ce5ig1z 5 лет назад

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. 🤷

@l.c.8475 5 лет назад

@@regulator5521 many already give discounts, for Starbucks its 10ct I believe, but other coffee shops give up to 30ct off for bringing your own cup. 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.

Starbucks uses a fresh plastic cup to fill your personal reusable cup and then throws away that plastic cup. Apparently they're incapable of measuring the standardized amount of coffee any other way. They really missed the point.

It’s really not that much of a benefit. Recycled paper cups would work far better and more efficient use of energy and man power. Coffee grounds already decompose.

@aleksandersuur9475 5 лет назад

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. This here is how their injection molding machine should be operating, it's a pretty similar machine to what they have ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-WUrALuorYXg.html

@hamfish225 5 лет назад

@deepdive5riku 5 лет назад

It's the resin and fiber that's really making the cups, the coffee could be replaced or removed entirely and it would work the same. Works great for advertising though.

@alexsiemers7898 5 лет назад

The grounds work as a filler so less resin/fiber is used per cup, which adds up over time.

@jamesbizs 5 лет назад

Alex Siemers ok, so use recycled paper as the filler.... coffee grounds is a gimmick. It’s cool and I have zero issue with it. But don’t pretend it’s going to save the environment.

@wge621 5 лет назад

The problem they were trying to solve was minimizing waste, not how to make a better coffee cup. The cup uses up 6 cups of coffee grounds, rather than just using up new or recycled paper. Reusing the coffee waste makes it a win. Recycled paper already has many uses, recycled coffee does not

@roadchewerpe5759 5 лет назад

@AR-dn9ej 5 лет назад

Angel Monroy It would be less trash in the form of coffee cups but it could be more energy intensive overall leading to more greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere than just having regular coffee cups, or better yet reusable espresso cups.

@1lowfatmilk712 5 лет назад

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!

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.

This is what I was thinking too; "natural resins" isn't descriptive enough. Looking at it this way, it's really more "plastic products with coffee grounds as filler" than "a cup made from coffee grounds."

This can be so helpful to the environment if used correctly

Grind your cup and make coffee again. That would be great :D

This is a wonderful idea and very practical going forward; however, I've other uses for my spent coffee grounds so i'll continue using my ceramic cups.

The statement that 'the ultimate goal is just to highlight the value of recycling and waste streams back to society' seems somehow self defeating. Like if the waste stream was really so valuable wouldn't it be used by someone who's ultimate goal was just to sell some cups? The highlighting of value would mostly come when third parties decided to study how their business got to be so profitable.

I think that the furniture idea is really good. Id by it just to have a library made of coffee grounds.

Great idea! Why the hell no one thought of this before?

“And even furniture pieces” Me: Man...this essay is too much for me and it’s already 10:30pm...I need some coffee... *later* Mom: Where’s half of the table? Me: *chews and swallows*

If Major coffee selling companies like starbucks and DD take this kind of measure, it can mostly make a massive difference. These are more cuter and aesthetically pleasing than your normal plastic and paper cups.

My mom just shoved all our banana peels, egg shells, fish heads, old fruit, and even coffee grounds into a hole she made in the ground

James jones He’s making a point about the stupid idea of these brown cups, in a clever tongue in cheek, facetious & indirect sort-a-way. It’s a sarcastic dry form of humor you’ve the apparent inability to detect... you unintelligent & uncultured B!+€H.

@Saveg36 5 лет назад

casualsweater lol no the idea is actually amazing, I just wanted to tell everyone what my mom does

@casualsweater 5 лет назад

KMS Oh. Lol. This stupid brown cup is actually a terribly stupid idea though ... if you wanna know why, just look around, I’ve made several comments & reply’s detailing why.

Great idea :) I like mate, so no problem with waste - i use one cup for few years and when it's not usable, there are 2 pieces - metal to recycle and simple piece of wood...
