Shocked 20% robusta I havn't  gone above 10% so far Smiley Normally using the Robusta 5-7 days older than the main bean/s and enjoying the extra punch.

I've never gona over 25% robusta in a blend and i dont think i ever will. At 25% it tasted too ash like and very smokey...a little bit dirty even?

I think 15% is a good number for some extra punch. For me Smiley

First time I put that much in too!
Maybe it's the Malabar or that its monsoon robusta.
Works for me!

Revisited this one but then added Tanzania Rononi, to make it more like 30/30/30/10...even better!
Body not quite as thick but more depth of flavour.
