About the Brand
Baratza — from Arabic and Swahili, suggesting a place where locals gather to drink coffee — has designed and engineered grinders in Seattle since 1999. Founded by Kyle Anderson and Kyra Kennedy, the brand quickly became known for innovation, quality, and consistency in home grinding. Baratza is now one of the most trusted names among home baristas worldwide, valued for durable gearboxes and grinders that just keep working.
The Product
The Baratza Virtuoso Plus Grinder is the tried-and-true grinder you'll find on the counter of most serious home brewers, and even behind the bar in some cafés. High-performance conical burrs produce uniform particles across 40 individual settings, paired with a digital timer accurate to a tenth of a second for repeatable dosing. This is the grinder that made "consistent" the standard, not the exception.
Key Features
40mm Conical Burrs (Uniform Particle Size)
Manufactured in Europe, the burr set grinds at 1.5–2.4g/sec depending on setting, producing the balanced, even particles that translate into balanced flavour in the cup.
40-Setting Grind Adjustment (Espresso to French Press)
Turn the hopper through 40 settings covering a 200–1200 micron range, moving quickly from fine espresso to coarse French press.
Digital Timer (Repeatable Dosing)
A 40-second digital timer adjustable to the tenth of a second lets you replicate the exact same dose every time you brew.
Low-Retention Design (Fresher Grounds)
The Virtuoso+ is built to minimise ground coffee left behind after each use, so less of yesterday's grind ends up in today's cup.
High-Torque DC Motor (Fast, Effortless Grinding)
A powerful DC motor drives the burrs with ease, keeping grind times short even at the finer settings.
Backlit Grounds Bin (See Your Grind)
An LED-backlit, clear grounds bin lets you watch the grinding action and see exactly how much you've dosed.
Who It's Built For
You're building a home brewing setup that can genuinely go from pour-over to French press to cold brew without a second grinder. The Virtuoso+ is for the coffee drinker who wants café-quality consistency without café-scale equipment. Set your grind, hit start, and taste the difference a properly uniform grind actually makes — every single time.
