Amazon Reviews 8.5
2024 "After much research, the Baratza Vario+ came out on top for a grinder within my price range. This grinder does a great job for an espresso grind."
Whole Latte Love 9
2024 "The Baratza Vario's upgraded 54mm ceramic flat burrs round out the grinder's great performance; ceramic burrs don't retain the amount of heat stainless burrs can."
Clive Coffee 8.5
