What's the main difference between Virtuoso+ and Encore? From just a quick glance, Virtuoso+ has a number of features that aren't very useful (like a timer, or LEDs/display) while having seemingly identical burr system?
- ValentineC 5y agoI believe the Virtuoso also comes with a better M2 burr set. The Encore can be upgraded to it.
- NegativeLatency 5y agoI have one of these, the LED is dumb but the digital timer is really nice for repeatability in how much you grind. Wasn’t willing to pay even more for one with a scale
- tokamak-teapot 5y agoI have a Macap M5D. This has a timer with three presets. It’s perfect and while expensive, even second hand, I wouldn’t say it’s overkill for home use. The timer means I don’t get the grind wrong. I’m not sure why you wouldn’t want one. I suppose I’m quite good at ‘eyeballing’ the quantity now, but the timer means consistency.
- BossingAround 5y agoGenerally, I'd advise against storing coffee in the bean loader. They aren't really hermetically sealed, so your beans will go stale. I always grind to measure, in which case I don't need timer.
