Evidence-of-quality score, not a cup score. Methodology

62

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 68.9 shrunk to 60.9 + bonuses = 62.

    Stumptown was the first “good” coffee I started buying and ordering online. Even though I have expanded my selection to places like B&W, I always keep at least two or three bags of Stumptown handy. But the last few months it seems like something is off. Zero exclusive blends (usually every 6 weeks or so they have one,.

    ...e on SM's site, the popper goes for $30, on amazon it's 15. I've never roasted and it's a new thought to me.
