THE USE OF COFFEE GROUNDS AS AN ADDITIONAL MATERIAL IN CERAMIC PLANTER PRODUCTS

Susi Hartanto, Nayadipta Janasthi

Abstract


Coffee consumption in Indonesia increased by 8.22% annually from 2016-2021, reaching 360,000 tons of consumed coffee. However, the processing of coffee waste in Indonesia is still not optimal, despite the fact that coffee waste can emit methane gas and is toxic to the environment. One idea to reduce waste by utilizing the porous nature of coffee is to turn it into a self-watering planter. This research is based on the Material Driven Design method, interviews with ceramicists and plant experts, collaboration with a coffee shop as a provider of coffee waste, literature studies, and personal experiments. The results showed that the best design criteria were: 1) Clay with 5% fine ground coffee waste; 2) Throw and carve forming technique; 3) Overall shape like a cone to prevent plants and planting media from falling; 4) Textured and rough planter surface to prevent slipping; 5) "Pockets" feature to facilitate planting; 6) The design focuses on microgreen planting but can also be used for ornamental plants. From the experiments conducted, coffee waste can be mixed with the highest percentage of 5% with fine ground coffee waste and throw and carve technique as the chosen forming technique. One planter has the potential to absorb waste from 5 ½ cups of coffee.
