What color is Behr Coffee Beans?
Behr Coffee Beans N150-6 is a deep, muted brown with a noticeable warm, reddish cast. Its low-light depth makes it a strong choice for cabinetry, a dining room accent wall, or a study where a darker finish feels intentional rather than stark. In bright daylight, the brown reads softened and earthy; under warm lamps, its subtle red undertone becomes more apparent. Pair Coffee Beans with creamy off-whites, clay-toned neutrals, aged brass, and medium-to-dark wood for a layered look. On a full room of walls, it is best balanced with pale trim and generous natural light.

LRV of Coffee Beans
Coffee Beans has an LRV of 10.59% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 10.59%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
