Coffee Soap

[Zany_in_CO]

I find the grounds to be very scratchy so I grind them to a powder and use with a light touch. Also, coffee soap is often called "kitchen soap" because it removes the stink from the hands after chopping/cleaning -- garlic, onion, fish, etc.

In the early days of soapmaking, I made "housewarming gifts" of Kitchen Soap, Mechanics Soap, and Gardener's Soap. You can use the same Basic Recipe for all 3. Then change the exfoliant from grounds/coffee to fine pumice/orange EO to herbs/herbal infusion.

@Hermit You're very welcome!
Here's another TIP: Tell your mom to keep her onions in the fridge to reduce tearing from slicing and dicing them.
