Which coffee, american or italian espresso? What about the degree of roasting?
Apart from the jokes, I "toned" years ago some silver prints with tea to obtain a "chamois" background. However, I agree with Judy: this is not a true toner, as more likely it is only a coloration of the substrate.
Instead, I wonder if tea (carrying some tannic acid), can affect cyanotyopes in a different way
