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.

    Unpacking from a 17 day trip, drinking coffee from Tokyo to Fukuoka. GLITCH, Coffee County and Leaves lived up to the hype and finding smaller places in-between was very satisfying as well. Many of the baristas were happy to talk shop and I was humbled by the generosity of many of the shop owners when I mentioned I mad

  • r/pourover · 8↑ · Any affordable roasters in Tokyo?

    I was surprised by how much shops like Glitch, X, Leaves, etc are charging for beans. If I’m doing the conversion right it’s like $50-$100 USD for a 12oz equivalent bag of beans, not special varietals, just regular beans. I’m talking about single origin say Kenya, say a SL28/SL34/Batian/Ruiru 11, in a natural process.…
