How Cherrybook Index is calculatedavg coverage 23% · limited data
Coverage is below 50%. Available roaster-level evidence comes from Reddit. Per-lot evidence from SCA grades, Coffee Review entries, and public on-shop product ratings is limited across the catalog. With limited signal, scores are also pulled toward a neutral 50 baseline by the Cherrybook Index methodology, so lots can read flatter than the actual cup quality differences between them. The average Cherrybook Index therefore leans more heavily on roaster-level reputation than per-lot quality.

Two independent Reddit comments give Heart Roasters favorable evidence. One repeat buyer called the Layo Teraga wonderful after having it twice that year. Another Oregon commenter included Heart among a group of solid local roasters.

...is. We're always trading beans, recommending new subscriptions or roasters, or purchasing bags from local shops. I live in Oregon so we have a bunch of solid roasters... Olympia, Heart, Roseline, Push x Pull, Upper Left, etc. I enjoy having him around very much, so I'll have to take a pass on that offer, sorry broth
