Sparse signal
Confidence1 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 5% 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 88% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.
The math on file: renormalized base 20.0 shrunk to 46.3 + bonuses = 41.

Inside this video
From Roaster Kat:
“We typically get a full truck of coffee every three weeks roughly at this point.”
“We roast four days a week. Our facility is actually only open four days a week. We're on a four-day work week, so four 10s.”
