Coffee grinds in my brf

I made 6 test jars for a little experiment and left them in my tit without looking alot. they have been in there 24 days. Three were made with the Pf tek ingredients only, and three were made with verm, brf and coffee grinds freshly ground and not used to make coffee.
I used a tea cup for my measuring so i used one whole cup of verm to one whole cup of BRF. The entire batch was made for 20 1/2 pint jars so after i made the three standard jars, i added a cup of coffee grounds to the rest of the batch. Water was also added till it looked right.
Results:
The coffee ground cakes have been fully colonized for a few days at least and the plain cakes are still at 75%, 85% and 95%. coffee worked for me 
now on to clone LC and grain.
This was done on a strain of legal edible mushroom that resembles pcube eq's.

Cool, I recently added coffee grounds in an experimental jar myself. It was only a few days ago, so I don't know how well it's doing yet.

I think it's a little safer to use spent grounds but if it's working then cool.
Your method of adding water is a little haphazard for cakes though. They can get pretty messed up if the ratio is off.
