Esgesso

An eco-conscious, multi-medium art foundation. Handcrafted from upcycled spent coffee grounds, natural beeswax, and walnut oil, Esgesso blends organic grain with structural depth, offering artists a rich, tactile surface for canvas, wood, and mixed-media creations.

❚ The Product

Sustainable Craft Meets Artistic Expression

Every year, vast quantities of post-brewed coffee waste are discarded. At Kache Regenerate, we give this organic byproduct a second life by combining sterilized coffee grounds with natural beeswax, walnut oil, and non-toxic binding agents. Formulated as a versatile textured primer, Esgesso transforms waste into a rich, aromatic art medium that brings earthy depth, subtle natural scents, and raw organic texture to your creative canvas.

>> Espresso + Gesso = Esgesso ☕🎨

• ☕ Espresso represents our core upcycled ingredient of spent coffee grounds, bringing the daily coffee ritual into art.

• 🎨 Gesso is the traditional painting primer used to build depth, body, and tactile canvas texture.

❚ Key Features

>>  Multi-Medium Versatility 🎨

Forms a highly compatible, textured foundation that seamlessly bonds with acrylics, oil paints, gouache, charcoal, and mixed-media elements.

>>  Natural Organic Texture & Warm Tones ☕

Infused with fine coffee particulates and pure walnut oil, producing a natural warm earth tint, micro-textured surface, and a subtle organic aroma as you paint.

>>  Solid-to-Fluid Thermal Application 🕯️

Formulated with natural beeswax. Gently warm the gesso in a water bath before use to melt it into a smooth, workable paste that sets into a durable, textured layer as it cools.
