The Mahlkönig Vario Grinder has a small footprint with impressive features including repeatable grind settings from fine grind for espresso, to coarse grind for plunger. One touch dosing is made easy using three user programmable buttons. The 54mm ceramic burr set is manufactured in Germany by Mahlkönig and provides accurate, fast grinding performance, remaining sharp for up to twice the lifetime of the finest steel burrs. The high torque DC motor and belt drive transmission insure smooth operation with minimal heat generation. All controls are mounted on the front of the Vario for easy accessibility. It also includes both a ground coffee collection bin and a Porta-Holder for hands free grinding into an espresso machine portafilter. The electronic control via timer, variable programming and multiple grind settings with fine tuning options makes dosing consistency easily achievable. in addition, the three individually adjustable pre-settings for espresso, filter and French press simplify the daily use. This is the home grinder of choice in the Ministry Grounds kitchen. Why? All of these reasons: The ease of changing origins, the almost non-existent retaining of grinds in the chute, precise timing, excellent distribution in the portafilter. rapid change of grind size and easy return to previous setting, quietness... the list goes on.
