HI all! I picked up a Vario grinder on the forums here, and been rather enjoying it! I had a Rocky for ages, and I love now having the programmable times and finer settings to jiggle. I do note, however, that with some beans I've been flying pretty close to the finest possible settings. We mainly do medium roasts, and we'd like to play with lighter ones too. It still sports the original ceramic burrs. I recall some reviews talking about "upgrades" to steel or other options.
I'm open to any recommendations on burr replacements, burr upgrades, and any other worthwhile upgrades whilst I'm mucking about!
And I suppose whilst I'm at it, I can see that (as non-drip, sole espresso drinkers) we will again be only playing about at the fine end of grind settings. This unit has a gross adjuster from 1-10 (1=finest). I can't see us using anything other than 1 or 2 (out of 10). Should we look at grinders that only play in the finer grind regions instead??
Cheers,
Mat
