Confidence33% coverage / 3 of 7 signals

Score is partially shrunk toward a neutral 50 — read directionally until more source families land.

How confidence affects the score

Coverage measures signal availability, not cup quality. Missing sources are dropped, remaining weights are renormalized, and the result is shrunk toward a neutral 50 baseline by 18% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.

Devoción is widely recognized as a staple of the NYC coffee scene, frequently cited as a favorite local roaster. Enthusiasts appreciate their unique cafe locations and include them in lists alongside other highly regarded specialty roasters like SEY and Coffee Collective. While one user noted they were able to pull better shots at home than the cafe, this is framed as a personal achievement rather than a critique of the roaster's bean quality.
