Virtuoso
CONICAL BURR GRINDER
The Virtuoso™ lives up to its
name by providing technical
skill, classic style and a
consistent, quality grind.
Grinding for espresso? Let the Virtuoso's
professional-grade 40mm conical burrs perform
their magic for a consistent, fine grind. How
about a French Press? The Virtuoso can handle
that too, with a particle size uniformity that
gives you consistency from cup to cup. In
fact, the Virtuoso is so consistent at both the
coarse and fine ends of the grind range that we
consider it to be in a class all by itself — and so
do many of the micro- and specialty-roasters
who swear by it.
The secret to the Virtuoso's consistent, smooth
grind 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.
The Virtuoso's exterior is just as finely tuned
as its interior — a convenient front-mounted
pulse button allows for grinding directly into an
espresso filter basket, while a 60-second timer
means that it's easy to replicate the ideal grind
time. With the Virtuoso, the look goes beyond
merely functional. A sculptured metal top and
base give this grinder an expensive, elegant
image that adds a sense of class and quality
to kitchen counters and coffee shop
workspaces alike.
When you want it all, the Virtuoso is the grinder
that will get you there with function, elegance,
and style.
