    Quick comment--normally ground coffee will make a *very* "scrubbing"-type 
bar of soap. If you prefer yours not to have this effect, grind up the coffee 
as fine as you can in a coffee/spice grinder before adding it. I decided not 
to bother with the batch I made a while back, and discovered just how HARD 
roasted coffee bean chunks can be! It's not too bad on just the hands, but I 
certainly wouldn't want to use it in the shower! ;-)
