Ken, I think Dennis is concerned about nitrogen being temporarily "stolen" by the microorganisms that decompose the coffee grounds, which can result in N deficiency in the plants. If you add sufficient inorganic nitrogen fertilizer to your mix then that potential problem is canceled out in any case.
