It is known to be possible for the stimulation of the coffe bean in coffee to make a plant grow better with it's aid along with water and sunlight and soil. We have tested this and shown that the plant will not thrive in just plain coffee, it must have nessisary items too.
My 9 year old daughter recently did a science project for school on what different kinds of materials a bean seed would grow in and one of them was coffee grounds. The fresh coffee grounds developed mold on the surface first and then a bean recently started to sprout, however, it is extemely slow growing compared to some of the other plants.
When you find pictures of naked brussel sprouts under their bed.
A serious answer:
Beans with any visible mold or fuzzy spots should be discarded, as well as any beans with spots of soft black or brown decay.

That is not necessarily harmful, but old wrinkled beans have lost most of their flavor and nutrients and should really be discarded in favor of fresh beans.
