INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the Virtuoso+
conical burr coffee grinder. With the
Virtuoso+, it's now easier than ever to
make professional quality coffee.
Below are detailed descriptions of the features that make the Virtuoso+
stand out from other grinders in its class.
Precision Conical Burrs
Manufactured in Europe, the 40 mm conical burrs of the
Virtuoso+ grind coffee at speeds up to 2.4 g/sec. What really
sets the Virtuoso+ burrs apart is a particle distribution that is
relatively uniform, notably at coarse settings. The Virtuoso+
burrs are exceptional multi-purpose burrs for espresso,
manual brewing methods, automatic brewers and French
press. These high-carbon steel conical burrs are durable and
will remain sharp for many years. The burrs have a precision
mounting system to ensure a stable platform for accurate
grinding.
Grind Adjustment
The Virtuoso+ has 40 distinct settings to enable grinding
from espresso to French press with the simple turn
of the hopper.

VIRTUOSO+ OPERATIONS MANUAL
Efficient Motor
The Virtuoso+ houses a powerful DC motor that produces
more than four times the output, with twice the efficiency,
of a standard AC motor found in most grinders in this class.
The motor spins at less than one-third the speed, making it
much quieter and lower in pitch. Extremely well-made, the
motor is built to handle long duty cycles. In addition,
it possesses a thermal safety device that protects the
motor from overheating and automatically resets once
the motor cools.
