Baratza Vario W+ coffee grinder - black

Vario W+ is a new version of iconic Baratza coffee grinder with a steel burr and built-in scale. Perfect for home use, especially as a filter coffee grinder, however, also grinds well as an espresso grinder - will easily satisfy the most demanding home baristas. The Baratza Vario W+ provides consistent grinding and a scale that enables you to measure out the right amount of coffee for a perfect cup.

BURRS

The steel burrs of the Vario W+ are dedicated to grinding for all brew methods including espresso through manual brew and beyond. They have been designed to enhance the flavor in the cup with a broad range of grind range (230 microns to 1150 microns) and a narrow particle distribution (lack of fines), the hallmarks of the superiority with the Vario Series steel burrs.


SCALE AND DIGITAL CONTROL PANEL

Vario W+ has a built-in scale that enables you to set the desired amount of coffee you want to grind. The front-mounted control panel with LED display is easy and intuitive. Three programmable buttons allow the user to program in the desired weight (+/- 0.1). Simply press the START button and the Vario W+ automatically delivers precise dosing.


GRIND ADJUSTMENT

The Vario W+ offers macro and micro adjust for fine tuning with ease. The macro adjust moves from fine to coarse grinding in 10 distinct and repeatable settings. A secondary micro adjust arm further divides each of the 10 macro steps into 22 distinct settings. These steps enable you to dial in the exact grind for the perfect shot.


GRINDS LEFT IN GRINDER

To maximize freshness, the Vario W+ minimizes the ground coffee left in the grinder.


BREWING METHODS

The Vario W+ is exceptional for espresso and manual brewing methods. When grinding for espresso it is recommended to keep coffee in the hopper; we do not recommend single-dosing for espresso though single-dosing is fine for all other brew methods with grind sizes above the espresso range!


MOTOR

A powerful, high torque DC motor effortlessly drives the burrs. This motor turns slowly resulting in cool, quiet operation and permits long grinding duty-cycles. The circuitry is equipped with an automatically resetting, thermal cutoff switch.


HOPPER

The hopper holds approximately 250 - 300g of coffee. An innovative bean shutoff feature in the collar permits no-mess, no-fuss hopper removal for changing out beans. Bean “waste” (below the stopper) averages a surprisingly low 10g, once the hopper has been shut off (all weights are bean density dependent).


CALIBRATION

The Vario W+ is calibrated at the factory to ensure an accurate range of grind. If necessary, the Vario W+ burrs can be easily calibrated using the special calibration tool that comes with the grinder.


CLEANING

The included burr removal tool makes it easy to access the grind chamber and tidy up under the hood.
