I don't think K-Kups would present much a problem either, but I haven't had the chance to try shredding and sorting them yet.
- bri3d 12y agoThis is actually really cool! Do many/most/any municipal recycling facilities have ECS sorters? Should I tell people to throw K-cups in the recycling? I'm assuming the coffee grounds need to be removed first?
