Baratza Virtuoso+
When you want it all, the Virtuoso+ is the grinder that will get you there with function and style. Whether you’re grinding for espresso or French Press, the Virtuoso+'s professional-grade 40mm conical burrs will perform their magic for a consistent, fine grind and consistency from cup to cup.
Their secret is two-fold: an efficient DC motor keeps your beans cool, even during extended grind times, while a combination of electric and gear speed reducers slow the burr to 450 RPM, ensuring a smooth bean feed and reducing noise, heat, and static buildup.
We offer free UPS shipping on grinders, plus we include a complimentary 10 oz. bag of our Good Vibes Medium Roast (a $15 value) with this purchase.
Details
-
Burrs: European made 40mm conical burrs
Grind Adjustment: 40 settings from from espresso to press pot
Grind Range: 200 — 1200 microns
Rate of Grind: 1.5g/sec. — 2.4g/sec @ 500 rpm
Motor: A 500 RPM DC motor with gear speed reducer helps keep the beans cool while grinding. Gear speed reducer also reduces noise as well as heat and static build up. The circuitry is equipped with an automatically resetting thermal cutoff switch.
No Load Burr Speed: 550 RPM
Gearbox 2.0: Adds increased strength and durability of the drive transmission, all the while decreasing the noise output. The new gearbox includes a new drive shaft, motor mounting plate and bushings, as well as a new drive gear made of 15% glass filled thermo plastic. This thermo plastic is quieter than the prior metal gear, wears better, and is more shock resistant. During Baratza's testing, stainless steel screws were thrown into the burrs, and in every case the motor/gear/burrs stopped immediately due to the thermal cutout, helping preserve the gears. The gearbox is automatically-resettable if this were to happen.
Front Panel: Digital display and 40 second digital timer, adjustable to the tenth of a second, allowing for easy repeatable dosing into hopper or directly into a portafilter basket.
