Baratza Vario Burr Grinder with Metal PortaHolder
Overview
This commercial-grade Baratza Vario Burr Grinder with metal portaholder and LED display features an advanced panel display, 54mm ceramic flat burrs, a throughput of 1.6-2.2 grams per second and an innovative macro/micro grind adjustment with 230 settings. The Vario and the Vario-W are virtually identical in design and capabilities: small footprint, macro/micro adjustment, 54mm ceramic burrs and a broad range of grinds.
Features and Functionality
- 54mm Ceramic Flat Burrs - These burrs stay sharper longer. Ceramic has a longer life than steel burrs and helps to keep the coffee cool by limiting the amount of heat transferred from the burrs to the grinds.
- Grind on Demand with Electronic Dosing - Grinds only the coffee required for each shot. Eliminates the risk of stale ground coffee common in mechanical dosing units.
- Innovative Dual Cam Grind Adjustment - The right-hand lever lets you choose what type of grind. The lever on the left lets you fine tune the grind within the range selected. More than 230 grind settings available.
- Programming - Features three user-programmable grind weight buttons.
- Super Quiet - Powerful motor turns slowly resulting in cool, quiet operation and permits extended grinding time. The circuitry is equipped with an automatic reset thermal switch.
- Metal PortaHolder - Universally adjustable brackets for any portafilter. Allows for hands-free operation.
