Hey Ray, this is an old post, so I hope you'll see this! Can you give me details for how you used the coffee? Did you water then soak with the coffee solution? If so, how long did you soak it for? Did you rinse after the coffee soak or left it there? When you added the alcohol, is that meant to prevent mold in orchid mix? I read some people said there was mold after using coffee dregs.

Thank you!
