Baratza Virtuoso+ Conical Burr Grinder
The new Virtuoso+ Conical Burr Grinder is an improvement on a grinder that we already thought was perfect. But the coffee geniuses at Baratza have gone and updated the timer switch with a very precise, and cleanly designed digital display that allows you to select grind time up to 40 seconds by 1/10 second increments. Accurate, repeatable dosing has never been simpler! It also features sleek metal body accents and a grind-bin light. But everything else remains the same, and that is a very good thing, considering how the Virtuoso offers next-level performance for any brew method from espresso to French press! If you're looking to get serious about your home coffee game, the Virtuoso+ is your grinder.
The quality, 40 mm conical burrs deliver phenomenal consistency across the entire grind range (even the fine and coarse ends) with very little occurrence of fines (the powdery grind residue that can lead to bitterness). It produces fast, at an output of 1.5 to 2.4 grams per second, with a low grinding speed for low heat, a steady bean feed, and quiet operation. The Virtuoso+ still offers a range of 40 settings (from 200 to 1200 microns) that will accommodate any method, including pressure-brewed espresso, auto-drip, manual methods, French press and Press Pot. Plus the superior design allows burrs to lift easily from the grinder, without tools, for simple cleaning. The Virtuoso+ Conical Burr Grinder includes an 8 oz bean hopper, 5 oz low-static grounds bin, and thermal on/off switch. Manufacturer's 1-year warranty. Measures 4.75" l x 6.25" w x 13.75" h.
