roasting it at a few sous per kilo
judge verdicts (2)
- groundedness 0.90 pass — The claim is directly supported by the passage, which explicitly states the old fellow made 'a business of going about the town gathering up coffee from the houses along the way and roasting it at a few sous per kilo.' The charge of 'a few sous per kilo' is directly stated in the text.
- qualifier_fidelity 0.90 pass — The claim is largely faithful to the passage. The viewpoint is correctly identified as 'author' (narrator), stance is appropriately 'asserts', sentiment is 'neutral', time qualifiers are correctly null (passage provides no temporal scope), context is appropriately empty, and the quote is verbatim from the passage. The only minor note is that the quote omits the opening phrase 'gathering up coffee from the houses' which provides fuller context for the roasting service, but this does not constitute an unfaithful qualifier—the selected quote accurately supports the specific claim about the pricing.
