Generally, you should cbet when you hit the flop, or when you have nothing but your range hits the flop.
I pretty much always cbet my top pairs, strong flush draws, and open enders. I'll also cbet Axx and Kxx when I have nothing.
I'm more likely to check middle pairs, gutters and overcards. I'll also check some weaker flush draws and monsters to balance out my range.
When we flop huge, such as a set or the nuts, it kind of depends. I can definitely slow play, but not if it's an Axx or Kxx flop because I want to bet these flops with my entire range. I'll also cbet if there's a reasonable chance my monster hand can be beaten.
It's better to try and get value and fail, than to get less value than you could have done. So if you're unsure whether to cbet for value, then just do it. Just pay attention to what people call you with so you can exploit bad players.
