VARIO W+ OPERATIONS MANUAL

BURR CALIBRATION

The Vario W+ factory calibration will accommodate a wide range of 
brew methods and calibration should not need to be adjusted out of the 
box for most brew methods. However, if the Vario W+ is unable to grind 
finely enough or coarsely enough for a particular brew method at the 
finest and coarsest settings, respectively, follow the instructions below.

TO RECALIBRATE THE GRINDER TO FACTORY SETTINGS:

1.  Empty all beans from the grinder.
2.  Follow the instructions in the Grinding Operation 

section of this manual to enter override mode.

3.  Lower the micro 

(5)

 and macro 

(6)

 levers all the way to 

the bottom of the range.

4.  With the hopper and grounds bin 

(10)

 in place, press 

START/STOP 

(7)

 and run the grinder long enough to 

expel any remaining coffee; when remaining coffee is 
expelled, press START/STOP.

5.  Remove the grounds bin and insert the calibration tool 

(11)

 into the round hole behind the discharge chute until 

the tool settles into the head of calibration screw inside.

6.  Press START/STOP to run the motor.
7.  With the motor running, move the macro arm up to 

setting 1 or until burr contact is heard, whichever 
comes first. If there was no burr contact detected when 
adjusting the macro lever, move the micro arm to M or 
to the point at which the burrs make contact, whichever 
comes first.
