{"product_id":"virtuoso","title":"Baratza | Virtuoso™+","description":"\u003ch2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\"\u003eBaratza Virtuoso+, Precision Filter Coffee Grinder\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe Baratza Virtuoso+ is the Encore's older sibling, same filter-first character, meaningfully better hardware. Harder M2 burrs give cleaner cuts and longer life, a 40-setting grind dial covers everything from French press to espresso range, and a digital timer accurate to a tenth of a second takes the guesswork out of dosing. All in a compact footprint that still fits any kitchen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIt's the grinder to buy when the Encore is nearly right but you want more precision on the dial and a proper timer on the front.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003e40mm M2 conical steel burrs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eM2 burrs are harder and more precisely machined than the burrs on entry-level grinders, which shows up two ways: a more uniform particle size in the cup, and burrs that hold their edge for years of daily use. The Virtuoso+ grinds faster than the Encore as a result, and the cleaner cut produces filter coffee with better clarity and separation of flavours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eTimer accurate to 0.1 seconds\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe front-panel timer lets you set grind time to a tenth of a second, enough resolution to dial in a dose and hit it consistently every morning. No more starting and stopping by eye, no more catching the grinder a second late. Set it once, hit the button.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003e40 grind settings across the brew range\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eSame 40-step grind range as the Encore, covering French press, Chemex, V60, Kalita, AeroPress, and drip. The Virtuoso+'s precision burrs and harder steel make each step feel more defined, the difference between settings is more audible in the cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eA noticeable step up from the Encore\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIf the Encore is the answer to \"where do I start with fresh grinding?\", the Virtuoso+ is the answer to \"what do I upgrade to?\" Better burrs, faster grinding, a timer on the front, a more finished-feeling chassis. For filter drinkers who've outgrown entry-level but aren't ready for the Forté range, this is the middle ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eBuilt for filter, not for espresso\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eLike the Encore, the Virtuoso+ is tuned for filter brewing. It can grind fine enough for most espresso machines, but it's not a dedicated espresso grinder, for that, the Sette line is the right category. For pour-over, drip, press, AeroPress, and everything in between, the Virtuoso+ is a proper upgrade.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Baratza","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":56787213910281,"sku":"520-230V-F","price":229.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0505\/3956\/1140\/files\/ZCG587_Carousel1_c1786240-5450-469b-8e65-515dacffee01.png?v=1776441240","url":"https:\/\/field-coffee.de\/products\/virtuoso","provider":"Field Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
