With robust internal systems, 220 adjustment steps, and an accurate time-based dosing system, the Vario+ is the key to unlocking repeatable, precision grind quality at home. In other words, you'll get your perfect dose of coffee into the included bin or portafilter holder (it comes with both)!

BURRS
The 54mm flat ceramic burrs of the Vario+ are dedicated to grinding for brew methods from drip to espresso. They have been designed to enhance the flavor in the cup with pre-calibrated burrs and dual stepped adjustment for pinpoint grind size accuracy.
DIGITAL CONTROL PANEL
The front-mounted control panel with LED display is easy and intuitive. Three programmable buttons allow you to program in the desired time down to one-tenth of a second. Simply press the START button and the Vario+ automatically delivers precise dosing.
GRIND ADJUSTMENT
The Vario+ offers macro and micro adjust for fine tuning your ground coffee. The macro adjust moves from fine to coarse grinding in 10 distinct settings. A secondary micro adjust arm further divides each of the 10 macro steps into 22 settings. These steps enable you to dial in the exact grind for the perfect shot.
GRINDS LEFT IN GRINDER
The Vario+ minimizes the ground coffee left in the grinder, and includes a shut-off hopper to easily switch coffees without having to tip the grinder over.
BREWING METHODS
The Vario+ 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.
HOPPER AND GROUNDS BIN
The hopper holds approximately 300 grams of coffee and the grounds bin holds 120 grams.
CALIBRATION
The Vario+ is calibrated at the factory to ensure an accurate range of grind. If necessary, the Vario+ 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.
