Robusta is used mainly as way to decrease production costs and give a coffee blend more body. In most "Italian" style blends, they will cut with up to 20% robusta to give that bitter flavour and increase the body and creme. It's also mainly used in instant.

I don't rate any coffee that is cut with robusta. 100% Arabica coffee is more expensive and has a better flavour profile.

>inb4 some sensory expert says they've used 100% robusta in a competition and it tastes just as good
>No. in general it doesn't.

Oily beans usually mean they've been roasted passed the 2nd crack. make sure you're storing them in an air tight container and using them quickly otherwise they will go rancid.

Not only do I get free coffee out our office/cafe, I can claim back any meals I have at other cafes as expenses. Part of my job is business development and that means going around to cafes/restaurants/hotels etc. trying to get them to use our coffee. Anytime I eat in or have a coffee at a potential new business, I can keep the receipt and claim that as an expense. Very cool part of the job.

You'd need to develop a following and give them a reason to sponsor you. They wouldn't just do it first. There are a lot of barista's who have instagrams etc. that try to do that but unless there is a good reason for a company to sponsor them they usually don't get it.
