Which leaves are yellowing? New or old? Is the yellowing over the whole leaf, following the veins or between the veins?

Hi Jam-man, coffee like a protected position and will not mind being in partial shade, if you have a morning sun and afternoon shade they will enjoy this. Check you have perfect drainage and that you plant is not too wet or too dry.

Could be a potassium deficiency. That appears first on the older leaves.
