  • 54mm Flat Steel Burrs - These burrs produce accurate grinding and high throughput for medium to coarse grinds.
  • Weight-Based - Set the weight of your desired ground coffee to more or less than 0.2g and the Forte BG will weigh the ground coffee while grinding, then stop automatically when it reaches your desired weight.
  • Digital Display - A backlit LCD touch screen is intuitive and easy to read, allowing you to dose by real-weight or by time.
  • Integrated Stopper Hopper - A newly designed removable hopper can prevent beans from falling down the grinder chute, making switching beans a snap. Features 30% larger capacity than other Baratza hoppers at 10.5 oz.
  • Programmability - Program three buttons with desired weights ( +/- .1 gram) or by time ( +/- .1 sec).
  • Removable Burrs - Use the included cast zinc tool to remove burrs for easy cleaning and maintenance.
  • Powerful Motor - The new high-torque motor has 70% more power than the current Vario model and grinds twice as long.
