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 76.1 shrunk to 65.0 + bonuses = 67.

    ...m and roast the coffee —i got French Truck from LA and it was good, but not life-changing. Cherry was a runner up: maybe check them out? I was super impressed with Brandywine, they have some great fruit-forward natural coffees. Also saw you were considered Sweet Bloom — do yourself and a favor and order some! It's b

  • r/espresso · 29↑ · Maybe I love light naturals too much? Hope freezing works!

    Glad it could help! I found most of these by reading lots of different threads on Reddit and then seeing which roasters matched my preferences of light/fruity/floral/bright coffees. I will say that Black & White is my favorite, followed by Royal Flamingo and Brandywine.

  • r/pourover · 17↑ · Roaster suggestions for funky fruit bombs

    I like funky fruit bombs. My favorite roasters to order from have been Brandywine (who I find getting more expensive, selling smaller bags, etc.) and Black & White. I probably order 70% from B&W because I have a Bottomless subscription (free shipping, 10% off). I recently discovered S&W and have enjoyed everything I've

Meanwhile the Brandywine Rogicha I tried was an incredible coffee experience at a fraction of this price. Do I just not “get” Gesha’

I found that I really enjoyed the Ethiopian Lemma Mamo from Brandywine Coffee Roasters, finding it to be extremely floral. However, today when I brewed it in a V60, it was much less flavorful. Any ideas on how I can bring out those notes be
