The fact that coffee dries darker, unlike watercolour, creates the possibility of layering quite effectively. Its fairly easy to keep on darkening subsequent washes by concentrating the coffee a bit each time. In my case, I did it the lazy way - by just leaving it to evaporate for a day or two in between each layer.
