What color is Benjamin Moore Café Doppio?
Benjamin Moore Café Doppio CSP-210 is a deep, muted brown with a gently warm cast and a softened, earthy finish. Its low-saturation character keeps it from reading overly red or sharply chocolate, giving the color a grounded, slightly weathered appearance. In bright natural light, its brown tones become more apparent, while dimmer rooms can make it look nearly black-brown. Use it on kitchen cabinetry, a library wall, or interior doors when a dark color is wanted without the cool edge of charcoal. Café Doppio pairs well with creamy off-whites, warm greige, aged brass, natural oak, and stone with tan or brown variation.

LRV of Café Doppio
Café Doppio has an LRV of 8.33% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 8.33%, 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.
