I can confirm that C-c ] and C-u C-c ]
work fine for me.

my setup if fairly simple (with org-ref.el tangled from org-ref.org)

  (require 'org-ref)

  (custom-set-variables
   '(org-ref-bibliography-notes "notes.org")
   '(org-ref-default-bibliography  (list "refs.bib"))
   ;; '(org-ref-pdf-directory "...")
   ;; '(org-ref-default-citation-link "...")
   ;; '(org-ref-insert-cite-key "...")
   )

looking forward to discover more of org-ref.

FWIW, I was using textcite:... (with biblatex) as well, helped myself by
just inserting a cite:... and then changing the link with C-c C-l from
cite to textcite. But I really need read up on all those different
citations commands once more, maybe textcite is not really necessary?
Could I add it somehow to the list of choices available in "C-u C-c ]" ?
(I realized there are citetext, citep*, citep as well, that I yet have
to discover).

By the way: the org-ref.org literate programming docs are fine
for someone interested in the gory details / relatively experienced.
Ist there a simpler document just describing its usage - that
you would hand out to your chemistry students e. g. ?

Somehting maybe explaining the differences from the other approaches
that can be found e g in

Thanks for org-ref.
