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

58

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 61.1 shrunk to 56.4 + bonuses = 58.

Mixed reviews· sentiment 60/100

One Reddit commenter says they had brewed Vigilante beans for almost three years without disappointment and appreciates dated bags. A separate post says the coffee is good but criticizes subscription pricing, business-model changes, and customer service. Another thread reports a great-tasting shot made with Brazil Capim Seco beans.
