How this estimate works
A statistical model, refit weekly across the in-stock catalog, estimates what a coffee with these listed attributes typically sells for per ounce. Each multiplier compares one trait against the average lot in this market; the roaster line covers brand and sourcing together, which this model cannot separate. Bag size is shown separately, priced at the rate observed across sizes of the same coffee, because it says nothing about the coffee itself. The distribution counts every in-stock listing in the comparison group, with at least 15 listings from three roasters and no roaster supplying more than 60% of it. Decaf, blends, variety segments, processing families and bag formats stay separate. Origin, roast and selling currency can broaden as the group label indicates. Prices are converted to USD per ounce; shipping and differences in tax treatment are not adjusted. The model reads listed attributes only: the quality of the specific lot in the bag is not observable, so a price above the typical band is not evidence of overpricing.
Some listing details are missing or have limited model coverage, so the typical band shown is wider than usual.

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 78.0 shrunk to 66.1 + bonuses = 63.

I just bought some Ethiopian coffee from Anchorhead and, while I can appreciate how clean and tasty the coffee is, I don't think my palette is really ready for that kind of acidic, bright coffee yet. I've just recently got into coffee and I've only had robust, coffee, chocolaty, & caramel notes my whole life. I don't w
- r/Coffee · 40↑ · [Question] Recommendations for espresso coffee with blueberry tasting notes?
Try Anchorhead's Leviathan espresso. Then primary component is an Ethiopia Aricha, which is a black-and-blueberry bomb. The Brazil component mellows it out a bit with some nice milk chocolate notes. It's one of my favourite espressos that I've ever pulled at home.

...ups brewed on their machines. Today I took delivery of a Moccamaster KB741, and immediately brewed a 6-cup (750ML) batch with 41g of freshly ground coffee from Anchorhead in Seattle. I have to say the results are stellar! I'm sure if I went through every step of making a perfect Chemex I'd have a slightly better cup

I’m not usually a fan of flavored milk drinks but Anchorhead does these tastefully.

Inside this video
From UpFlip:
“I mean you can't really have a successful business without.”
“We did hire a PR firm. It was worthless.”
“We tried every single milk we could find and we switched to a substantially cheaper milk and we saved like $80,000 a year on milk.”
