Most of us now, has a coffee machine at home or know someone that has a coffee maker in their household. And in your office, it is strange if you pantry does not have a coffee machine.

I thought I would just insert some useful tips about coffee in this newsletter. Now, we all have incidents with smell cabinet, smelly fridge and so on.

The best way to absorb the smell, especially for fridge is to open a can of roasted coffee beans and put it in for a day. The oxidization of the coffee beans, would absorb all the smell.

The beautiful thing about using coffee grounds, is your fridge or cabinet would have an aromatic coffee smell -it smell tasty!
