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 75.7 shrunk to 64.8 = 65.

4 new bags just arrived in the mail from Traffic. It’s 7 PM and it’s taking every ounce (or gram?) of restraint not to brew a cup right now. Who else is a fan of Traffic? I’ve only had Love Buzz before, excited to rip into these bags. Here’s what’s on deck: https://www.trafficcoffee.com/products/marcelo-flavio-competit

I’ve been drinking a lot of different Traffic beans lately and every single one is so good, every tasting note is so clear, they smell amazing. I don’t understand how. I’ve always bought nice beans.
