Cherrybook Index (CBI)

Evidence-of-quality score, not a cup score. Methodology

66

Noted

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 15% 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 63% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.

The math on file: renormalized base 81.7 shrunk to 61.9 + bonuses = 66.
