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 Reddit contributions praise Ruby. One calls it a very good example of a quality-focused roaster using more development; a separate office brew reportedly impressed coworkers.

...which is obviously intentional. All of that is to say I don’t think this is necessarily a trend—quality-minded roasters tend to roast “lighter” and have done so for a while. But there are certainly some very good roasters that do roast with significantly more development, if that’s what you like (Ruby a good example

...press is out, and even the Chemex or CleverDripper doesn’t easily produce that much coffee. I almost think that getting better beans (they have okay beans but were blown away when I used Ruby beans in the clever dripper) and a drip machine is the most reasonable… but that doesn’t feel like a “great” solution.
