Evaluation procedure Samples should first be visually baked for color. This is marked on the worksheet and can be used as a reference when rating specific flavor attributes. The ranking order for each attribute is based on the change in taste perception caused by the drop in temperature of the coffee as it cools:

Step 1 -Fragrance

Within 15 minutes of grinding the sample, the dry aroma of the sample was assessed by removing the lid and sniffing the dry powder.

After soaking in water, the crust remains intact for at least 3 minutes, but no more than 5 minutes. Stir 3 times, then let the foam run down the back of the spoon while sniffing gently. Aroma/aroma scores were then labeled according to dry and wet evaluations.

Step 2 -Taste, Aftertaste, Acidity, Body and Balance

Evaluation of the wine should begin when the sample has cooled to 160oF(71oC), about 8 - 10 minutes from injection. Inhale the white wine into your mouth to cover as many areas as possible, especially the tongue and palate. Because at these elevated temperatures the retro nasal vapours reach their maximum intensity, taste and aftertaste are evaluated at this point.

As coffee continues to cool (160oF - 140oF), acidity, body and balance are evaluated. Balance refers to the tasters assessment of taste, aftertaste, acidity and body harmony.

Step 3: Sweetness, Uniformity and Cleanliness

Brewing method Room temperature (below 100oF) Sweet, homogeneous, assessed and clean cups. For these attributes, cupper will make a judgment on each individual cup, awarding 2 points per cup for each attribute (up to 10 points).

The evaluation of wine should stop when the sample reaches 70oF(21oC) and the overall score is determined by copper and gives the sample a copper "point" based on all attributes.

Step 4 -Score

After evaluating the sample, all scores are added as described in the Scoring section below, and the final score is written in the box in the upper right corner.
