CARE and CLEANING
Removing the Bean Hopper
Remove all beans from the hopper then press the front mounted pulse button
to run any remaining beans through
the grinder. Remove the plug from the
power outlet. Remove the hopper by
rotating it counterclockwise until it
stops, and then lift the bean hopper off
of the grinder housing.
Removing the Ring Burr
Pull the silicone seal off the top of the
Ring Burr. Remove the ring burr by
lifting it straight up out of the grinder by
the lifting tabs. If the burr does not lift
out, ensure that the grind adjustment
ring is turned fully counterclockwise.

Questions and answers
My virtuoso takes way too long to grind 3 scoops at 19 for drip
The Baratza Virtuoso might take too long to grind 3 scoops at setting 19 for drip coffee due to several possible reasons:
1. Clogging or Blockage – Coffee grounds or oils may have built up inside the burrs, slowing the grinding process. Cleaning the burrs and grounds bin can help.
2. Worn Burrs – Over time, burrs wear down, reducing grinding efficiency and making the process slower. Replacing the burrs may be necessary.
3. Motor or Speed Issues – The grinder uses a DC motor with speed reducers to control burr rotation. If these components are not functioning properly, grinding may take longer.
4. Bean Type and Roast Level – Different beans and roast levels can impact grind speed. Darker, oilier beans might slow down grinding due to increased resistance.
5. Grind Setting – Setting 19 is relatively coarse, but if the adjustment is not properly calibrated, the grinder may be working harder than expected.
Cleaning, checking for wear, and ensuring proper grind settings can help resolve the issue.

Put back together after unclogging. When I turn grinder on the hopper and silicone turns with the burr. Hopper should be stationary.
