From the editors
This lot is no longer available at the roaster.
We last reached the roaster’s page for this coffee 126 days ago. It now returns a not-found or members-only response, so we’ve archived the buy link rather than send anyone to a dead page. The notes, sensory chart, and editorial context below remain useful as a record of what this lot offered.

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 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 75.8 shrunk to 64.8 = 65.

Three Reddit contributions give Koppi Roasters a mixed but favorable picture. One brewer struggled to get good flavor from two Ethiopian coffees. Another detailed a Finca El Paraiso they considered among their best recent coffees, and a third described a Burundi coffee as awesome despite some under-extraction.

- r/Coffee · 3↑ · [Technique] Grinding adjustment for beans a couple/three weeks past roast (Chemex)?
So I've been brewing some awesome beans (Burundi is the origin and roaster is Koppi in Sweden). I'm getting a bit of under-extraction I think, but I'm not great at detecting under/over extraction. The beans were roasted on 16th December. I know that is not as fresh as I prefer, but my favourite third wave shop had them
