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 65.0 shrunk to 51.9 = 52.

From Big Review TV:
“I've just drank one of the most delicious coffees I've ever had, but that is not all. They also stock a heap of coffee making equipment and their own freshly roasted coffee flavors.”
“They'll make you up something delish, they'll teach you how to use all of the equipment, you can take it away with you, and then you can take their coffee beans as well.”
