Will save your smartphone

If your smartphone accidentally falls into water, you can restore it using rice cereal. Rice is able to absorb water.

Cleaning the coffee grinder

The coffee grinder needs to be cleaned from time to time. If you don't do this, the coffee dust will get into all corners of the grinder.

Because of this, the coffee grinder motor will be overloaded, and this will affect the grinding level. You need to pour rice into the coffee grinder and press the button.

All that remains from the rice should be flour. All that remains is to wipe the coffee grinder with a wet cloth.

Fertilizer

Rice water can be used as a fertilizer. The point is that in addition to many vitamins and antioxidants, it contains minerals necessary for plants, for example, K, N, P.

In addition, rice contains a lot of starch, which is used to fertilize the soil.

To feed, pour rice into a plate, add water, wait 30 minutes and then strain. Pour the rice water into a jar and water the plant.
