Moisture meter readings at farm gate still vary too much for me

Recently I have been discussing trusting moisture meter readings at farm gate with several coffee people and nobody gives the same answer. Some treat it as small detail, some say it changes the whole workflow. I am not looking for textbook reply. I want to know whether trusting moisture meter readings at farm gate gives meaningful difference once you repeat it over many cycles.

Would you keep trusting moisture meter readings at farm gate in your normal process, or only for specific coffees and situations?

I think the bigger issue is not trusting moisture meter readings at farm gate itself but whether your baseline is stable. If baseline keeps moving, then every experiment around it gives mixed signal.

i see trusting moisture meter readings at farm gate work in some place, but usually only when the notes are clear and people really compare batch by batch. if not, discussion become only feeling.

I disagree a little with people who say trusting moisture meter readings at farm gate is only a small detail. Small detail alone maybe yes, but several small details together can move the cup a lot.

What helped me most was keeping short notes each time. Without notes, discussion about trusting moisture meter readings at farm gate becomes memory battle and not real evaluation.

For trusting moisture meter readings at farm gate, I only trust conclusion after I see same pattern several times. One successful run can be accident. Repetition is what make the lesson useful.
