3-6 sets a decade.

Drat! You beat me in the game of 'whom is so above bicep work they rarley do it'. Here's me thinking 3-6 sets a year would do it! School boy mistake. Beaten by a better man... again!! lolol :)

Seriously though if I wanted bigger arms I would do bicep curls every week on top of compound work.

how many direct biceps work do you do?

How many English did you learn in school?

Ha ha ha.

I very rarely do biceps specific exercises. Hence why my arms look smaller compared to my chest, back and shoulders.
Addressing that this year hopefully.

Usually go high(er) reps in the 10-30 range with drop sets and back to back stuff. Just enjoy doing them again as much as anything. Never used to train them directly when I was purely PL training...

I've been experimenting with swapping curls for close grip pull ups and it seems to be working pretty well. Theory is you can always cheat up a curl but you're limited to how much you can cheat your way to the top of a pull up. Thus greater intensity.
