Confident

Confidence3 of 7 signals on file

Enough independent signal to score at face value; no shrinkage applied.

How confidence affects the score

Coverage measures signal availability, not cup quality. This coffee has 45% 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 0% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.

Missing: Reddit sentiment, YouTube reviews, On-shop ratings, Cherrybook ratings

Cherrybook summary of the video

Derek Henderson of Speedwell Coffee in Plymouth, Massachusetts, demonstrates their small-batch fluid-bed roasting process. He explains the mechanics of fluid-bed roasting, where heat and air movement drive the roast rather than a turning metal drum.

Inside this video

From wl plymouth:

“We're a small batch specialty roaster.”
“The fluid bed roaster as opposed to a drum roaster... this moves because we're forcing air through the roaster.”
