Ordered by how many in-stock coffees each roaster sells under £25 a kilo. It says nothing about which coffee is better: Bean Clarity does not rank coffee by quality.
The full list is in the catalogue, every coffee under £25 a kilo, cheapest first.
Why most of them are 1 kg bags
The bag, the label, the filling and the postage cost about the same whatever goes inside, so a bigger bag spreads them over more coffee. That is the whole mechanism, and why a bigger bag costs less puts the catalogue’s own figure on it.
What the cheaper coffees tend to be
Counting the origins named on the coffees under £25 a kilo: Brazil (131), Colombia (87), Ethiopia (55), Vietnam (36) and Guatemala (34). These are counts of listings, not a verdict on any origin.
How £25 compares
The median coffee here costs £38.00 a kilo, taken at the cheapest bag each roaster sells, so £25 is well below the middle of the market. The median itself states what was counted and when, and what speciality coffee should cost walks through the whole price picture.
No roaster can pay to change a figure or the order of a list; any paid placement is labelled Sponsored.
