Grind a small amount of coffee into the bin by pressing the START button, then
pressing it again to stop the grinding. Check the particle size. If the particle
size is close to what you desire, use the Micro lever to fine-tune the grind size.
If the particle size needs a big change, then adjust the Macro lever to a new
position.
The full range on the Micro scale is equal to one "click" or position change on
the Macro scale. Adjusting levers UP produces a smaller particle size, adjusting
levers DOWN produces a larger particle size.
CAUTION:
Partially ground coffee beans may remain between the burrs when
the grinder is turned off. When making ANY grind adjustment, the grinder must
be running.

Weight-Based Grinding Operation

Insert the coffee bin on the load cell and press TARE. Then press one of the
preset buttons (1,2,3). The screen will show the pre-programmed grind weight
in grams. Press START to begin grinding.
While grinding, the screen will display in real-time, the weight of coffee in the
grounds bin. When the screen reaches the programmed weight (+/- 0.2g), the
motor will stop and the screen will show the actual weight in the grounds bin
for 3 seconds, then the screen will reset to the programmed weight. The grinder
will only allow a maximum of 120g to be ground at one time. At any time, during
grinding, you can stop the unit by pressing the START/STOP button. The motor
will stop and the screen will reset to the selected preset weight.

Programming

The VARIO-W is equipped with three programmable buttons. The buttons are
simply labeled 1,2,3. These programmable buttons only adjust the amount of
weight of coffee to be ground, they do not adjust the grind setting.
