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. 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.

Mothership Coffee Roasters is recognized as a notable specialty coffee spot in the Las Vegas area. Visitors praise their delicious pour-overs, fresh offerings, and great physical spaces, such as their outdoor turf area. While one user found a specific anaerobic Ethiopian offering to be too funky and astringent, others have successfully pulled shots and made lattes with their single-origins and blends like Ballast Espresso.
