How this estimate works

A statistical model, refit weekly across the in-stock catalog, estimates what a coffee with these listed attributes typically sells for per ounce. Each multiplier compares one trait against the average lot in this market; the roaster line covers brand and sourcing together, which this model cannot separate. Bag size is shown separately, priced at the rate observed across sizes of the same coffee, because it says nothing about the coffee itself. The distribution counts every in-stock listing in the comparison group, with at least 15 listings from three roasters and no roaster supplying more than 60% of it. Decaf, blends, variety segments, processing families and bag formats stay separate. Origin, roast and selling currency can broaden as the group label indicates. Prices are converted to USD per ounce; shipping and differences in tax treatment are not adjusted. The model reads listed attributes only: the quality of the specific lot in the bag is not observable, so a price above the typical band is not evidence of overpricing.

Some listing details are missing or have limited model coverage, so the typical band shown is wider than usual.

Cherrybook Index (CBI)

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

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 51.1 shrunk to 50.6 = 51.

How ratings count toward the Index

To count toward Cherrybook Index, an aggregate must come from a supported source, match this product, include at least 5 ratings, and have been refreshed within 90 days. Its weight is 12% for 5–24 ratings, 15% for 25–99, or 18% for 100 or more. Higher tiers require another base signal; a ratings-only lot stays at 12%.

This video covers The Barn Coffee Roasters; it is general roaster coverage.

Cherrybook summary of the video

This video features an interview with Ralf Rüller, the founder of The Barn Coffee Roasters in Berlin. He discusses his journey from London to Berlin, his philosophy on sourcing and roasting, and the importance of building a community with farmers and customers.

Inside this video

From European Coffee Trip:

“I'm very close to the product and in that sense, I'm also very close to the baristas and the head barista and the quality on my bar.”
“The roasting you learn by roasting. You can do roast classes. I've never done a roast class. I'm very self-educated.”
“I think the roast philosophy is very close to the sourcing philosophy. I think they are connected.”
