The VARIO™ is Baratza’s entrée to the mezzo class of grinders.
The mezzo class fills the niche between large professional grinders and home
grinders. The VARIO’s™ small footprint, full range of grind, rapidly
repeatable micro grind adjustment and quick grinding speed, places it at the
top of its class.
Small on size, Big on Performance:
The VARIO™ has the performance of a large grinder without the need for
all the counter space. Measuring only 5” wide and 7” deep the VARIO™
will fit on almost any counter. At only 14.5” tall, it also fits under
all overhead cupboards. All functions are controlled from the front, so walls
or equipment directly beside it is not a problem.
Any way you like it:
The broad range of grind (250 mm to 1200mm) and the narrow particle distribution
(bi-model in espresso setting) are hallmarks of the professionalism of the VARIO™.
Fine tuning, with ease:
Macro and Micro adjustments are instantly and repeatedly achievable with the
intuitive VARIO™ adjustment system. The VARIO™ has 230 distinct
settings of grind to satisfy even the most demanding coffee connoisseur.
One touch is all it takes:
Three user programmable buttons allow for grind time setting within 0.1 second
(about 0.2 gram). Simply press the START button, and the VARIO™ automatically
delivers precise dosing.
Faster than a speeding…..
The VARIO™ grinds 1.5 grams/second at Espresso and 2.5 grams/second at
Press. The speed of grind is truly Professional.
Harder than steel:
Manufactured in Germany by Mahlkönig, the VARIO’s™ 54mm Professional
ceramic burrs produce accurate grinding, high throughput and remain sharp for
up to twice the lifetime of the highest quality steel burrs.
A cool drive system:
The Vario™ employs a high torque DC motor and an ultra-quiet belt-drive
transmission. The German timing belt provides important thermal isolation of
motor and burrs, ensuring cooler coffee.
Look Ma!….. no hands:
Baratza’s™ exclusive PortaHolder™ permits hands free grinding
into any Espresso portafilter.
