Noted
Preliminary
Confidence3 of 7 signals on file
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. This coffee has 33% 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 18% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.
The math on file: renormalized base 70.8 shrunk to 67.1 + bonuses = 69.

Recently bought some anaerobically fermented Ethiopian beans from Mothership Coffee in the Las Vegas area. First time trying anaerobic coffee and was not thrilled with the funky flavors and astringency. Any recommendations on brewing methods that would limit some of those qualities?
