The Virtuoso™ has many of the winning features of the Maestro Plus™ along with commercial grade components, higher performance and sleeker style. With the Virtuoso™, it’s easy to make professional quality coffee, whether at the home, the office or your café.

In additional to all the great features of the Maestro Plus™, the Virtuoso™ includes commercial grade conical burrs, a 480 watt DC motor, a new shape and a beautiful brushed-satin metal top.

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 coarse, 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: Can grind fine enough for a professional espresso machine and coarse enough for a press pot. With 40 steps of adjustment, choose the perfect setting by by simply turning the bean hopper to the desired position.

Innovative calibration: Designed to match commercial grade calibration, each grinder is calibrated during manufacturing to ensure an accurate range of grind, but can also be user calibrated if you just can't keep your hands off.

DC Motor: The powerful, high torque 480 watt DC motor effortlessly drives the burrs to turn slowly, resulting in cool, quiet operation that 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, while ensuring that the beans feed smoothly into the burrs.

Timers switch and Pulse button A sixty second timer, with segmented graphics, for easily repeatable grind times, plus a front mounted pulse button that manually controls the on/off function to allow easy grinding of small amounts of coffee for espresso brewing.

Pulse button makes Espresso Easy: If you’re brewing with an espresso machine, you’ll enjoy the convenience of grinding directly into the portafilter. Just remove the coffee grounds bin, and insert your portafilter directly under the dispensing chute to collect the coffee as it's ground. Simply push the pulse button with your thumb while holding the filter basket for one-hand operation. What will you do with the other hand?
