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 56.5 shrunk to 53.8 = 54.

…their coffee. Not a big fan of the automated Curtis pourover and sometimes their coffee selection is fairly dark. I ordered Dak on espresso, and my partner got The Barn on pour over. The Dak espresso was by far the best espresso I’ve had in a cafe in over a year. Absolutely phenomenal mouth feel clean complex, just st

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.”
