Features:
Commercial
Grade
Conical
Burrs
Manufactured
in Italy,
the
Virtuoso’s™
44mm
grinding
burrs are
the same
material
and
durability
as the
industry’s
highest-quality
line of
commercial
conical
burr
coffee
grinders. Conical
burr
grinders
are
exceptional
at
producing
consistent
grinds
from very
fine to
course, as
well as
being
durable
and will
remain
sharp for
many
years.
The burrs
have a
precision
mounting
system to
ensure a
stable
platform
for
accurate
grinding.
Grind
Coffee For
Any
Brewing
Method
There are
many
coffee
grinders
on the
market.
However,
few have
the
ability to
grind fine
enough for
a
professional
espresso
machine
and course
enough for
a press
pot. The
Virtuoso™
has 40
steps of
adjustment.
Choose the
perfect
setting by
turning
the bean
hopper to
the
desired
position.
Innovative
calibration
Commercial
grinders
have a
calibration
system to
ensure
that the
grinder
will grind
fine
enough for
espresso
and has
the range
to grind
course
enough for
press
pot. This
feature is
available
in the
Virtuoso™.
The
grinders
are
calibrated
when they
are
manufactured
to ensure
an
accurate
range of
grind. If
necessary
the
grinders
can be
user
calibrated.
DC Motor
The
powerful,
high
torque 480
watt 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.
Unique
Speed
Control
The
Virtuoso™
uses a
combination
of gear
and
electronic
speed
reduction
to control
the
rotation
of the
burr to
450 RPM.
The
electronic
speed
controller
is
adjustable
from 405
to 495 RPM
in the
event that
specific
user
conditions
require
modification
of the
speed.
This slow
speed
reduces
heat,
noise, and
static
generation
in the
grinder.
It also
ensures
that the
beans feed
smoothly
into the
burrs.
Timers
switch and
Pulse
button
The
Virtuoso™
has a
sixty
second
timer,
with
segmented
graphics,
for easily
repeatable
grind
times.
It also
has a
front
mounted
pulse
button
that
manually
controls
the on/off
function.
This is
nice if
you wish
to grind a
small
amount of
coffee for
espresso.
Pulse
button
makes
Espresso
Easy
If you
have an
espresso
machine,
you will
enjoy the
convenience
of being
able to
grind
directly
into the
filter
basket for
your
machine.
After you
remove the
coffee
grounds
bin, you
can insert
your
filter
basket (portafilter)
directly
under the
dispensing
chute to
collect
the coffee
as it is
being
dispensed.
You can
push the
pulse
button
with your
thumb
while
holding
the filter
basket for
true one
hand
operation.
Easy to
Clean
One
important
and often
overlooked
task
required
of owning
a good
coffee
grinder is
routine
cleaning.
To clean
the
Virtuoso™,
just
remove the
coffee
been
hopper to
expose the
grinding
chamber.
At this
point the
outer ring
burr
simply
lifts
out. The
entire
grinding
chamber
can then
be
thoroughly
cleaned in
a few
minutes.
Service &
Support
One year
warranty.
If your
grinder
has a
problem we
will see
if we can
resolve it
over the
website or
phone or
will
promptly
send a
replacement
grinder
and a
return tag
for your
old one.
