Refurbished – unused
This grinder has never been used and comes with all original accessories. It may be missing its original retail packaging, or the box may have been opened, but the grinder itself has not been used. Covered by our 2-year warranty.
Turn the dial, change the cup. The Varia VS6 is Varia's flagship single-dose grinder, here in black or white: factory-fitted 58 mm flat burrs, a 300 W brushless motor and speed control from 500 to 1600 RPM, so you can steer body, sweetness and acidity for espresso and filter alike. It's all metal, no plastic, and arrives in its own hard case.
Our take: what we found when we played with the RPM
In our own Journal review we ground the same coffee through the flat burrs at 500, 1100 and 1600 RPM. 500 RPM gave a mellow, low-acidity cup with a creamy body; 1100 RPM brought higher acidity and pronounced sweetness with a thinner body; 1600 RPM landed balanced, with a structured body and a long aftertaste. Same beans, three different coffees.
Good to know before you buy: the VS6 only takes Varia's own burrs, the 35 g catch cup is small for big batch brews, and a quick tidy after grinding is part of the routine.
As Varia's distributor in Europe we handle warranty and service here in Europe, and we're happy to help you pick a burr set.

How does the advanced static control work?

What is included in the product package?
The product package includes:
1 x VS6 Grinder (Factory Fitted with 58mm Flat Stainless Steel Supernova Burr Set)
1 x 58mm Dosing Cup
1 x AC Cable (Plug Type selected at checkout)

What is the purpose of the TSU-1 Resin Hard Case?
The TSU-1 Resin Hard Case provides maximum protection against shocks, water, and dust. It includes custom-made EPE + EVA foam inserts to securely hold the grinder and its accessories during transport.
Varia VS6 or VS4?
Choose the VS6 for flat burrs, swappable burr sets and a wider 500–1600 RPM range. Choose the VS4 for a smaller conical-burr grinder at a lower price.
Flat or conical burrs: which is better?
Neither is 'better' – they taste different. The VS6 lets you try both: it ships with flat burrs and takes an optional 63 mm conical set.
Is the VS6 good for espresso?
Yes. The 35 g dosing cup fits a 58 mm portafilter, and the 5-micron steps make espresso dial-in precise.
