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 70.8 shrunk to 62.0 = 62.

...and full temp blooms while keeping everything else the same, and I find that I prefer different temps for each coffee. For example, brewing a washed Abel Salinas Mejorado from Subtext, the full temp bloom produces a very brown sugar forward cup; absurdly sweet. The 60C bloom on the other hand made the cup almost per

Just picked up the Francy Marin washed Pink Bourbon... two brews in and feeling a little disappointed. Subtext has always been a favourite but this batch seems a little more developed than usual. Anyone have the same experience?
