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 89.7 shrunk to 72.8 = 73.

Two Reddit posts praise Small Planes. One calls a roast excellent; another describes Arboretum espresso as extremely syrupy and sweet and says it prompted a bag purchase.
