Overview
An electric burr coffee grinder from Baratza with 40 grind settings and a digital timer adjustable to a tenth of a second, aimed at buyers dialing in everything from espresso to French press. Commercial grade conical burrs and a backlit grounds bin are built for consistency rather than one touch convenience.
The grind range spans manual brew methods such as Aeropress, Hario V60 and Chemex through automatic drip and espresso, which is the practical reason to pick this over a single purpose grinder. Baratza backs it with a 1 year warranty and points to hardened steel burrs and a DC motor as the durability case for the price. There is no seller description beyond the listed features, so buyers weighing this against an automatic dosing model should note the Virtuoso+ runs on manual timer control instead.
- 40 grind settings for espresso through French press
- Digital timer to a tenth of a second
- European made hardened steel conical burrs
- LED backlit grounds bin
Who it's for
Suited to home brewers who use more than one brew method and want fine grained control over grind time and size. Less suited to buyers who want automatic dosing by cup count, since dosing here runs on the digital timer rather than a cup selector.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- 40 grind settings across manual and automatic brew methods

- No owner reviews yet on this listing to confirm real world consistency
Performance notes
The 40 grind settings run through commercial grade conical burrs, with the digital timer adjustable to a tenth of a second for repeatable dosing by time rather than a cup counter. An LED backlit grounds bin is built to make the ground coffee level visible while dosing. Hardened steel burrs and a DC motor are the components Baratza cites for consistent grind and longevity.
