Coffea Arabica beginner

Hi everyone

I got a small coffee plant 10 days ago for graduation. It came in a very small (maybe 2 inches tall) coffee mug. By the time I got home from my school, it had traveled a full day in a car and on buses so I think it was pretty stressful for it. When I got home, I repotted it to a slightly bigger plastic pot. The problem is that the tips of leaves have started to brown and that hasn't stopped. The browning is present even on the newest leaves. The plant is in a generic plant soil, which I know contains perlite and fertilizer. I thought that the problem might be low humidity so I put it on a water filled pebble tray (pebbles are sea pebbles, dont know if that is a factor), or overwatering, so I started a Monday and Thursday watering schedule where I soak the soil, instead of what I did in the beginning which was watering a little bit almost every day. I will also start to mist daily. The plant is in a room facing south, but the sunlight is very filtered, almost in shade. I would put it out on the balcony where it's still shady but considerably more light, but it's pretty windy so I keep it indoors. Am I doing anything wrong? I really don't want it to die. I would appreciate your advice.

PS The plant consists of over a dozen individual stems, 2 separate clusters. Are each of them capable of growing in their own pot or do they all need to be together? I will try to post photos of all of this.

Also, I am located in Croatia where Mediterranean climate is present.
