In other words, your \r\ngrinder does all the hard work, so all you have to do is pick a weight \r\nand hit go!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tExpect accurate doses to the tenth of a gram whether you’re grinding a\r\n precision dose for that elusive god shot, making yourself a pourover, \r\nor setting up a big batch of cold brew for tomorrow. Setting up a preset\r\n for three different brew methods is easy with the newly updated \r\nhigh-visibility backlit LCD and modernized user interface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBurrs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThe steel burrs of the Vario W+ are dedicated to grinding for all \r\nbrew methods including espresso through manual brew and beyond. They \r\nhave been designed to enhance the flavor in the cup with a broad range \r\nof grind range (230 microns to 1150 microns) and a narrow particle \r\ndistribution (lack of fines), the hallmarks of the superiority with the \r\nVario Series steel burrs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDigital Control Panel\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThe front-mounted control panel with LED display is easy and \r\nintuitive. Three programmable buttons allow the user to program in the \r\ndesired weight (+\/- 0.1). Simply press the START button and the Vario W+\r\n automatically delivers precise dosing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGrind Adjustment\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThe Vario W+ offers macro and micro adjust for fine tuning with ease.\r\n The macro adjust moves from fine to coarse grinding in 10 distinct and \r\nrepeatable settings. A secondary micro adjust arm further divides each \r\nof the 10 macro steps into 22 distinct settings. These steps enable you \r\nto dial in the exact grind for the perfect shot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRetention\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tTo maximize freshness, the Vario W+ minimizes the ground coffee left in the grinder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBrewing Methods\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThe Vario W+ is exceptional for espresso and manual brewing methods. \r\nWhen grinding for espresso it is recommended to keep coffee in the \r\nhopper; we do not recommend single-dosing for espresso though \r\nsingle-dosing is fine for all other brew methods with grind sizes above \r\nthe espresso range!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMotor\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tA powerful, high torque DC motor effortlessly drives the burrs. This \r\nmotor turns slowly resulting in cool, quiet operation and permits long \r\ngrinding duty-cycles. The circuitry is equipped with an automatically \r\nresetting, thermal cutoff switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHopper\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThe hopper holds approximately 300g of coffee. An innovative bean \r\nshutoff feature in the collar permits no-mess, no-fuss hopper removal \r\nfor changing out beans. Bean “waste” (below the stopper) averages a \r\nsurprisingly low 10g, once the hopper has been shut off (all weights are\r\n bean density dependent).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCalibration\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThe Vario W+ is calibrated at the factory to ensure an accurate range\r\n of grind. If necessary, the Vario W+ burrs can be easily calibrated \r\nusing the special calibration tool that comes with the grinder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCleaning\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThe included burr removal tool makes it easy to access the grind chamber and tidy up under the hood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAccessories:\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t(which may be purchased separately)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHopper extender\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tAn extension that can add 275g of capacity to the existing bean \r\nhopper. Several extenders can be added to get to the capacity you need.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCeramic Burrs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t54mm flat ceramic burrs are available top customize the Vario W+. \r\nBoth steel and ceramic burrs work great for all brew methods, but we \r\nunderstand that taste is subjective!
