2ND GENERATION UPDATES

1) New motor construction with stainless steel gearbox, delivering a grind speed of 190RPM for both espresso and filter settings while maintaining consistent precision. Uncompromised consistency and precision across all grind settings. Safety mechanism built in to ensure over torque protection.

2) The updated assembly with improved alignment and concentricity of the driveshaft and burr set, resulting in extreme consistency and precision. Unique to the VS3 the driveshaft is machined to a 0.015mm tolerance. P5 class double layer ball bearings for smooth, stable and precise movements. Hard chamber premium springs for stability an damping of the burr under resistance load resulting in decreased vibrations and movements of the internal parts increasing consistency. 

3) New outer burr design machined out of one piece of stainless steel using precision tolerances resulting in precise alignment, concentricity and stability while grinding resulting in a far more precise and consistent particle distribution. Small notches have also been added to the ears of the outer burr to ensure that it can be easily removed from the chamber by hand.

4) The anti-static design incorporates metal parts treated with anti-static oxidation surface treatment, ensuring minimal static retention and ensuring that coffee only comes into contact with metal throughout the entire process, from the hopper to the dosing cup.


ZERO RETENTION FOCUS

The Varia VS3 (Varia Stepless 38mm) Electric Grinder utilises a sloped geometry with a 76.5° acute angle. Using this geometry also allows for ideal zero retention conditions as well as a better workflow in relation to adding coffee to the hopper, making grind adjustments, and 180° access to the dosing cup.

Purging will not be necessary when grinding different coffees with a retention of less than 0.1 over a 10g dose.

SPACE GRADE CNC MACHINED ALUMINIUM CONSTRUCTION
Absolute precision and alignment from the ground up. Every edge of the main body is machined to 0.02mm accuracy and high grade processing.High grade scratch resistant spray powder coated matte finish. Durable and easy to clean.

PRECISION STEPLESS GRIND ADJUSTMENTS
Fine pitched thread with 0.02MM (20 Microns) of relative burr shift per increment.
Our stepless adjustment is operated by turning the hopper in the desired direction. As a result of our stepless assembly, we can achieve virtually endless particle sizes giving you full access to experimenting with your brews. Each shift of the burr represents a 20μm relative vertical burr shift or 0.02mm per increment. Hopper capacity of 30g. 

SMALL FOOTPRINT BUT MIGHTY
ompact size and unmatched performance & consistency. VS3 is a highly compact electric grinder that has extreme performance from commercial espresso settings to hand drip and cold brew.

REFINED USER EXPERIENCE
Magnets into our hopper lid to connect with the hopper as well as our base to connect with our dosing cup. Non slip silicone feet are also installed on the base of the VS3. Includes silicone bellows cleaner.

          I found this grinder great to use until it failed completely after a few months of 2 coffees per day. The on/off switch and power circuit failed, as best I can tell. After searching it appears these grinders have had lots of issues.

          So far the support from The Golden Brewing has been slow to the point it appears they are trying to avoid their consumer obligations. If a product is defective, it’s the responsibility of the seller to make good, not attempt to blame on manufacturer and avoid legal obligation to the customer.

          Based on this I can’t recommend the VS3 Gen2 or The Golden Brewing.

          Thank you for your feedback.

          Makes me excited to rise and grind every morning

          Every night when I go to sleep, I can't contain my excitement to wake up the next day and use my beautiful Varia VS3. When I'm not using it, I stare lovingly at it, dreaming of the next grind.

          I all seriousness, not only is this a beautifully designed grinder that feels great to use, it grinds extremely well. With it's relatively slower speed, it produces a consistent grind size.

          I use it to grind for pour over brewing. I found the grind size recommendations trend towards the finer size but after some refining, I found my optimal grind size easily.

          The bonus features such as the magnetic cup, spray bottle and bellow all add to a complete single dose grinder experience.

          Highly recommend.
