Weight-based grinding for extreme accuracy makes it easier to make that perfect cup of coffee. Baratza’s groundbreaking Vario-W + is a fully integrated real-time weight-based grinder. It has all the features of the Vario + including small footprint, macro/micro adjustment, Stainless burrs, and a broad range of grind, but uses a weight-based dosing approach rather than a time-based approach. This professional-grade grinder fits anywhere, from your kitchen to your office to your café. The Vario-W was initially designed for use in a manual brew bar in a café, eliminating the need to manually pre-weigh coffee beans. The built-in precision load cell provides accurate weighing, while grinding, to within 0.1 grams. Three user-programmable buttons make for repeatable, one- touch grinding. The design is beautiful as well as functional. The Vario-W’s+ intuitive macro/micro adjustments offer 230 distinct and repeatable settings for any style of coffee. The Vario-W’s unique 54mm Steel flat burrs provide accurate, fast-grinding (averaging 2 g/sec) performance and remain sharp twice as long as the best steel burrs. The high-torque DC motor and belt drive transmission mean your beans are in for a smooth, cool ride. As always, it’s not just what’s inside that matters; the Vario-W +smooth operation carries over from internal to external, with front-mounted, easy-access control units, a 5 oz. grounds coffee collection bin.
DIGITAL CONTROL PANEL
The front-mounted control panel with LED display is easy and intuitive. Three programmable buttons allow the user to program in the desired weight (+/- 0.1). Simply press the START button and the Vario W+ automatically delivers precise dosing.
GRIND ADJUSTMENT
The Vario W+ offers macro and micro adjust for fine tuning with ease. The macro adjust moves from fine to coarse grinding in 10 distinct and repeatable settings. A secondary micro adjusting arm further divides each of the 10 macro steps into 22 distinct settings. These steps enable you to dial in the exact grind for the perfect shot.
GRINDS LEFT IN GRINDER
To maximize freshness, the Vario W+ minimizes the ground coffee left in the grinder.
BREWING METHODS
The Vario W+ 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. The circuitry is equipped with an automatically resetting, thermal cutoff switch.
HOPPER
The hopper holds approximately 300g of coffee. An innovative bean shutoff feature in the collar permits no-mess, no-fuss hopper removal for changing out beans. Bean “waste” (below the stopper) averages a surprisingly low 10g, once the hopper has been shut off (all weights are bean density dependent).
CALIBRATION
The Vario W+ is calibrated at the factory to ensure an accurate range of grind. If necessary, the Vario W+ 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.
Accessories:
(which may be purchased separately)
HOPPER EXTENDER
An extension that can add 275g of capacity to the existing bean hopper. Several extenders can be added to get to the capacity you need.
CERAMIC BURRS
54mm flat ceramic burrs are available to customize the Vario W+. Both steel and ceramic burrs work great for all brew methods, but we understand that taste is subjective! If you prefer ceramic burrs, they are available for purchase in our parts shop!
