Hi no hands

Looks like your coffee Bush is suffering from over fertilization as evidenced by the yellowing and subsequent burning of the lower leaves. Stop fertilizing for a while and water it longer to leach out the fert residue. Rethink the frequency and amount of fertilizer you were previously applying.

It's beneficial to let it receive morning sun only avoiding the hot scorching afternoon sun.

I had a similar problem with my coffee tree a number of weeks ago, and I put it down to the hot afternoon sun as noted by Fruitylicious1.
I wasn't fertilising it or doing anything unusual at the time.
Moving it to a position where it gets morning sun and dappled midday-afternoon sun fixed the problem for me.
