Cherrybook summary of the video

This video is a brew tutorial by Ply from Rogue Wave Coffee, demonstrating how to brew the Kenya Maguta Amber CM Lot H03 using the Orea 01 dripper with a negotiator for a no-bypass brew. Ply also demonstrates an espresso recipe for the same coffee.

Inside this video

From Rogue Wave Coffee Co:

“For today, we are using the Baby Zero, the Orea 01. We're going to be using the Orea paper filter, the Wave, and we are going to use a negotiator to make it a no-bypass brew.”
“The way that you pour, you start in the middle, do a kind of quarter size, and then go out with one round and then you can come back.”

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.

Community reputation · Reddit

Well-regarded· sentiment 82/100

Two Reddit threads give Rogue Wave Coffee strongly favorable marks for its coffee. In one, a commenter called a Rogue Wave Clearpath coffee really good and described the coffee under discussion as one of the better ones for them. In the other, a poster rated Rogue Wave 10/10, recommended it, and said the roaster's regularly priced beans were always freshly roasted and tasted great, while questioning the price of smaller, more expensive bags.

    I figured I couldn't have been the only one to experience the shipping delays/re-routes! Shipping within the US has gotten a bit weird, too. Yes, it's one of the better ones for me, too. I had another of the Rogue Wave Clearpath Coffees (El Mirador) and it was really good, too, but not as intense as this one.

  • r/Coffee · 4↑ · Variance of bean prices

    ...for less than half the amount? I wonder if there is a significant difference in these beans or maybe they are just tougher to come by/import. Has anybody tried beans with this price and was it worth it? If anyone is curious, I’m referring to Rogue Wave Coffee in Edmonton. They are 10/10 in my opinion, would recommen
