How Cherry’s Index is calculatedavg coverage 47% · limited data
Coverage is below 50%. Most of this roaster’s lots are scored off roaster-level signals (Reddit + YouTube) without per-lot SCA grades, Coffee Review entries, or published buyer reviews. With limited signal, scores are also pulled toward a neutral 50 baseline by the Cherry’s Index methodology, so lots can read flatter than the actual cup quality differences between them. The avg Cherry’s Index reflects general reputation more than per-lot quality.

The provided Reddit threads do not contain substantive discussion regarding Lighthouse Roasters (a Seattle-based roaster). One thread is a general list of cafes, and the other mentions a "Lighthouse Coffee" booth in Malaysia, which appears to be a different entity or a local shop rather than the established Seattle roaster. Consequently, there is no community consensus or reputation data available for Lighthouse Roasters in these specific threads.
