    Hi. I've been raising worms for quite awhile, and give them onions, tomatos, lemons, oranges, pineapple etc. and they have devoured it all.

      Love it! Worms absolutely will get through it all, personally I avoid the stronger smelling foods. Given time all the compounds that are negative for worms will be broken down and become food for the cycle

      Thanks pal, easy to just keep expanding once the ball is rolling and the worms are happily breeding

      You just have to be careful not to pile them up too much because the coffee will heat up. So be careful if the worms don't have a place to move out of the hot zone.

    Looks a bit dry. Also in my bins moisture is higher than yours seem and i find my worms all over the bin and not balled up on one end.

      Agreed. If you check out the first video in our everything worm farming playlist, it explains how our bins work a little differently to standard breeder bins 😁 thanks for watching

    If the grounds you use are not from organically grown coffee, you are also adding the residue of pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides to your compost. Coffee is the most heavily sprayed food crop sold. Drink organic coffee and use those grounds in your compost.

      That's a very interesting point. I do wonder if the removal of the berry as well as the fermentation stage would greatly reduce the chance of residual compounds as there should be no external plant matter which has been in contact with non systemic compounds. Obviously systemic compounds are a different issue all together
      Would be very interested to see any data you might have in regards to the points made.
      Thanks for your comment

      @@thegreenerlife I do know that a major pest for coffee growers is a nematode attacking the roots. The pesticide is applied on the soil around the plant and is absorbed by the roots. It is a systemic pesticide and ends up being concentrated in the bean. People drinking coffee that was not grown organically are accumulating that and other such toxins in their liver.

      Hey I gotta drink the coffee from these beans. Frigging worms can eat the grounds.
