I recently tiled a bathroom floor. The grout that we selected dried a couple of shades lighter than we expected. It's also a couple of shades lighter than the color sample on the grout package.

Is there anything I can do to darken the grout short of replacing it?

You can use a grout colorant if you havent yet sealed the grout. It'll give you the color your looking for and seal the grout all in one step.

I feel your pain. Same thing happened to me when I first laid some tile in my entryway. I ended up getting some colorant as Johnny said from groutdye.com

They can match any color grout you have and it turned out great.
