I've heard it works pretty well, because it is chunky like kosher salt. I believe kosher works better because it is slightly smaller (fit pipes better) yet still chunky, and more jagged and pointy. Epsom is more like a cube (it's salt) but will still work far better than table (fine) salt. And the worst would be pickling salt (extremely fine).
