Sparse signal
Confidence2 of 7 signals on file
Score is heavily shrunk toward 50; treat as a placeholder until more sources arrive.
How confidence affects the score
Coverage measures signal availability, not cup quality. This coffee has 23% of the signal universe on file. Missing sources are dropped, remaining weights are renormalized, and the result is shrunk toward a neutral 50 baseline by 43% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.
The math on file: renormalized base 78.3 shrunk to 66.3 = 66.

- r/Coffee · 25↑ · Why is the V60 so good (vs Chemex)?
...ntly been having issues with getting a Chemex brew to extract evenly, no matter what I did it just wouldn't extract properly. I was at a brew class on Saturday past at 3FE (www.3fe.com - a wonderful cafe/roastery in Dublin, Ireland), and one of the brew methods we learnt was the V60. I've had a V60 for a year since
