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 65.0 shrunk to 58.6 + bonuses = 62.

Two Reddit contributions give Intelligentsia Coffee a positive but qualified picture. One commenter praised the brews at a Chicago location. A home brewer found older Intelligentsia beans good but slightly ashy when steeped too long.

- r/pourover · 36↑ · The original Intelligentsia location is now mainly using Aeropress…
The bigger Intelligentsia location in the loop uses a pour steady to make up to ~4 V60 at once. These machines are crazy expensive, so I’m guessing they don’t want to proliferate them. They make great brews though. I do hope Intelli can make a better AP than me. I’m useless with that thing.
- r/Coffee · 20↑ · Sour vs stale, and different types of stale?
...o long ago vs. ground too long ago staleness have different stale flavors. My timeline of realization went like this: Early December- gifted a bag of roasted in October Intelligentsia beans, put them in the freezer knowing I would get a good grinder soon. Mid December- bought some specialty coffee locally about 5 da
