In most cases yes- it is safe to wash away ground coffee in the sink and it serves as foul drain odours absorbent as a side benefit. However old or improvized drain system may get clogged- it only takes a place where the coffee can accumulate to spoil the party! If in doubt use them as mulch in the garden or throw them away.

How do you solve Coffee grounds clogs?

Best way is to avoid them completely by placing them in your compost pile or in your trash can. But to clear an existing clog plungers and/or small drain snake. If you are trying to clear a clog in a double sink, you will need to block-off one of the drains before using a plunger. After the drain starts working, fill the sink (with water) and drain again, the added pressure of a full sink of water will help assure the clog is cleared. Then don't put grounds down the drain/garbage disposal at all.

How do you unclog a sink drain?

This method worked quite well on our sink. Put baking soda around the sink hole (it should clump up and slightly go down the drain). Then add a bit of white vinegar and flush around the sink. It should bubble and your sink should be unclogged. If it didn't work you can repeat till it's unclogged.
