Is it okay to dump used coffee grounds down the sink and through the dispose-all?


Question:Any plumbing or environmental issues?

Answers:
Not a good idea. When the grounds reach the larger drain pipes, they will fall to the bottom and start a clog. Use them in your garden instead of your plumbing.


I wouldn't recommend it
No environmental issue, but you can expect to get a clogged drain sooner or later.
No issues at all and it's actually good for the drain. It kills a lot of odors.
It is a major problem. Coffee grounds tend to clog drains. I use an old coffee can next to my sink to collect the grounds.
Not such a good idea. Remember, it is a disposal, not a dispose-all. Not everything is suppose to go down the drain.
