T

hank you for purchasing the Virtuoso Conical Burr Coffee Grinder.  With 

the Virtuoso, it’s now easier than ever to make professional quality coffee, 

whether at home, the office, or your café. 

Below are detailed descriptions of the features that make the Virtuoso stand out 

from other grinders in its class.

Precise, commercial-quality burrs:

Manufactured in Italy, the Virtuoso’s burrs are of the same material and durabil-

ity as the industry’s highest-quality line of commercial conical burr coffee grind-

ers.  The burrs rotate slower than those of most grinders minimizing the heat in 

the beans, to preserve the flavor.

Innovative burr calibration system: 

The range of grind and the accuracy of the settings is truly impressive.  The 

Virtuoso has 40 distinct settings of grind from Espresso to French Press.  An 

innovative calibration system allows all the manufacturing tolerances of the 

grinder to be eliminated, resulting in identical, accurate performance of each 

grinder. Furthermore the Virtuoso ring burr is supported on three points, provid-

ing a stable platform for a more accurate grind.  Whether in commercial, semi-

professional or personal applications, exact grind is imperative to a high-quality 

extraction and, therefore, a better cup of coffee!

Efficient motor:

The Virtuoso houses a powerful DC motor that produces more than four times 

the output 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 over-

heating and automatically resets once the motor cools.
