Cherrybook Index (CBI)
Evidence-of-quality score, not a cup score. Methodology
62
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 38% 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 5% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.
The math on file: renormalized base 68.4 shrunk to 67.4 + bonuses = 62.

“A decent decaff coffee, with a fairly good flavour, although it can't compete with many caffeinated lots. The roast is a little too dark for me, which is a common problem with decaffs.”

…a trolling I was still keen to give it a go. I mean, why the hell not right!

Cherrybook summary of the video
This video provides a look at the early days and operational philosophy of Rave Coffee. It highlights the founders' transition from the IT industry to coffee roasting, emphasizing their engineering-focused approach to the roasting process and their commitment to sourcing based on market trends and rigorous cupping.
Inside this video
From Doodlebox Media:
“It's quite an engineering or it's a manufacturing process and Rob's of that mindset. So, you know, to to learn about it and to actually roast it, it's it's like engineering.”
“The guys tend to very much sort of talk to the brokers, see what flavors are out there, what's the most popular, then we buy the product in based on some cupping tasting that they might do.”
