Care instructions
Varia VS4 has a patented, removable one-piece grind chamber with a quick-release bayonet solution, making maintenance easy and helping to keep retention low. The grinder can be quickly disassembled without tools while maintaining the alignment of the burrs. The quick release to the hopper provides full access to the chamber in under a second, and when disconnected, the power is automatically cut off for safer cleaning and service. For ongoing maintenance, hopper bellows, cleaning brush, RDT spray bottle, spare parts kit, and user manual are included. One thing to keep in mind is that VS4 is built for precision and single dosing rather than large volumes at once.
