Default Anyone use coffee grinds for your garden?

From what I've read, you can add it to the garden or compost heap. They
apparently add nitrogen, so I wouldn't use them directly on vegetables,
but I would use them on my flowers - especially the acid loving ones. I
read one comment somewhere that slugs don't like coffee grinds but worms
do....a perfect match.
