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 73.3 shrunk to 63.4 = 63.

What the reviewer said
From Dark Arts Coffee, discussing Sweet Soaker - Colombia:
“That's um a Kenyan coffee. We picked this because we think that um with African coffees which are a little bit more acidic, you really get that accentuated using a pour over method like V60.”
