sorry, but coffee grounds (USED) tend to be CLOSE TO NEUTRAL. No, I'm not kidding. The acids all went into your coffee pot.
anyone care to check my claim with an actual pH test?
Not only that, because they are ground and so readily broken down by bacteria, the net effect of coffee grounds will be to raise the pH due to bacterial slime. You can magnify the effect by raking it into the soil and grinding finer.
Blueberries like it just fine too, because good blueberry soil is already fungal dominated and it's not enough to tilt the balance.
Hmmm, gonna have to disagree with you on this one. I just ran an experiment with a pH pen. Tap water was at 6.91. I threw in this morning's coffee grounds (a pretty large amount) and now the water is at 6.42 - a 0.5 drop! Of course, if I used less grounds it would have gone down less, but they are definitely not neutral.
