Varia VS3 Espresso Review! ☕️📸

- Varia VS3 Single Dose Grinder:
.
.
🔹️It is considered a quiet grinder. even while grinding the beans, it is still quiet due to its low grinding speed (low RPM).
🔹️It has all the essentials accessories for a single dose coffee grinder ranging from magnetic catcher cup, silicone blower, magnetic lid, and a minimalistic water bottle for RDT. However, the anti-popcorn piece needs some improvements as the beas are getting stuck in it. That being said, Varia team has confirmed with us that they are working on a newer one.
🔹️It has a step-less grind adjustment mechanism which is easy to use and it is consistent.
🔹️The motor is very small. we tried to grind across all different roasting levels and the grinder had no issues.That being said, we had super light roasted dry Ethiopian coffee beans that were 3 months old and those were the only ones that made the grinder to lag and stop in espresso setting.
For home users, we are comfortable saying that the Varia VS3 will fill your needs. It is capable to grind for 10 consistent doses for espresso shot with no issues.
Additionally, it took the grinder 200g of consistent grinding for Turkish coffee until it started to heat up.
🔹️The black powder coating looks beautiful and it feels premium.
🔹️It has a small power supply outside the grinder similar to the laptop power supply charger. While many of our friends thought it was a deal breaker for them, we had no issues with it as it will be sitting behind the coffee bar or the espresso machine.
🔹️Tastewise:
We are very familiar with the burrs that the Varia VS3 is using.
They will give you very delicious espresso shots with creamy texture, strong body, and enjoyable tasting notes.
We tried to compare it side by side to other conical burr electric grinders like the Arco and the Niche zero. The results were very similar and it was difficult to distinguish between them.
.
Overall, as minimalistic grinder for home use, the Varia VS3 is a wonderful choice and it is well priced. We did hope for a slightly stronger motor, but we are comfortable in recommending the current one.
.
.
If you have any questions, let us know. We are always happy to help!
.
Thanks to the Varia team for giving us the chance to test the VS3 and to share our genuine feedback with all our friends 🤍💯
.
.
Hope you are having a lovely day! ☕️

The smell of coffee coming from the phone👃☕
☕️🤍😊👏
No unnecessary steps, Beautiful workflow 😌👌
Thank you! ☕️🤍
I don't understand how this is a review, but it's a beautiful video. The lighting is great, makes the coffee look so delicious
Hi there! Feel free to check the discription. You can find it on the corner while playing the video on the three dots 👇👉 (•••)
@@ourcoffeeshelter Ah, didn't know shorts had descriptions too. Thanks!
@@djentlover I didn’t either and I spend a lot of time on TH-cam. Learned something !😂
Coffee Shelter, the professional that he is, is one of the only shorts creators that actually puts descriptions in the videos
The ceramic cup is stunning!
That was magical and a symphony of delight.
☕️🤍👏
Your videos are so relaxing
Thank you! 🤍☕️👏😊
I mean... That is pure art my friends.
🤍☕️👏👏
What brand portafilter stand is that?
Aww i missed this coffee dripping...☕🥰
That’s a very fine espresso machine you got there
Thank you, looks great!
Nice review - i didn't know that shorts had descriptions - just found your clip looking for info on the VS3 - are you still using it? Do you have any comment on upgraded burrs? Cheers
Hi there, we have a dedicated video about best Electric grinders between $150 and $350 USD, feel free to check that video out, you will have all the answers there.
VS6 review is coming soon 👌😊☕️🤍
Thank you for the review! Could you please comment on the retention in this grinder?
☕☕☕
Love Is Important
Indeed! ☕️🤍
Excuse me, my friend, I want ask you about that you spray on the coffee beans before grinding them. What is it?☺️
Hi there! Some grinders produce static electricity while grinding the beans. The ground coffee will stuck in the inside of the grinder and leave some retention. Additionally, the coffee will come out flying and sticks everywhere due to the static electricity. Adding a splash of water will moist the beans and solve the issue 🤍☕️
Thanks, came for the same question.
What would be a reason to still purchase the niche, specifically if only using for espresso? Is workflow similar? I have a hand grinder for filter, just need a good electric espresso grinder, I'm the only coffee drinker so it's 2 lattes a day. Any reason to still go niche? Single dosing is the important thing to me
I have the same question. I also lik ehow this grinder takes a bit less footprint. Most important perfmance is the overall grind size particle consistency,, I understand. How good are the burrs? That would requires a real lab-style examination to find out...
May I ask what kind of beans did you use? The crema looks so delicious
How would you compare it to the Arco Goat Story, in terms of build quality, process, retention and taste? Would you recommend one over the other? I’m in between the two to buy. (for espresso)
Its power block/adapter is the dealbreaker for the VS3, MHW-3 Bomber/Sniper/whatever and any others that have the power supply separate. It's another chunk of nonsense to add clutter to my already small kitchen counter.
Now if the power supply were to be incorporated into the whole grinder, then I 'd entertain the possibility.

Take my money now
what's your camera ? cause the quality is pretty x)
How do you wash the coffee grinder?
Love from MCGI💕
Unscrew the hopper, and then you can access the internal components and grind the chamber by removing one nut. The grinder also comes with replacement components in case you lose one of the tiny springs or retaining pins.
How was it dialing in for espresso? I found the df64 to really be awful to dial in and produced very different results at the same grind setting and brew temperature also on a Marax.
Hi there! We did share a video called The best mods for DF64. You either need to give it some time to season the burrs, or you need to check the alignment (we made a video about that in our "Helpful Tips" playlist). It is easy to dial in, but we won't say much more easier than the DF64 👏
Nice cup
What is it sprayed on the beans?
Just water. Search on google “The Ross Droplet Technique (RDT)”
Peace✌🏼
Just a bit of water I believe. They do it to reduce static that causes grounds to stick to the grinder.
What's the soundtrack called? I'm loving it
How about the grind size for pourover?? And the taste also
We'll share the filter review soon. However, we can say that the burrs are espresso focused and they do give less clarity in filter coffee, but the taste will still be enjoyable and good 🤍☕️
It's 9:50pm and now im craving coffee.. 🤤☕️
☕️🤍😃👍🏽
What coffee machine do you recomend for a begginer or for home use, thanks
Yum!
What dosing funnel is that?
What coffee machine is this? Looks class
Do you recommend the felicita arc scale, having used it? I am trying to compare between this, the acaia lunar, and the varia aku
I do all the still channeling,,,,,may be my grinder
Variaはどうですか？espressoは美味しい？😳
それにしても、タンパーたちがオシャレだわあー✨✨
Hi there! Yes, as we have explianed in the discription section, it will give you the typical creamy texture and strong body that most conical burrs grinders are giving ☕️🤍👌
Where did you get the bravo palm tamper? In the US, whole latte love is the only distributor I have seen, but they do not have this style of tamper.
What spray? can you tell me the brand?🤔🤔🤔😘😁
Water
My man
is it true zero retention ? Any mass on countertop after bellows? Can you adjust any size easily ?
How do you like that new Bravo mini tamper?

Hi there! Feel free to check the discription. You can find it on the corner while playing the video on the three dots 👇👉 (•••)
You can find our thoughts i that video 🤍☕️
Awesome video!! And delicious Coffee. What is the spray?
Water
Special antistatic compound to reduce grinder retention.
What is the spritz of water do?
Hi friend, how does it compare with the Lagom Mini? Thanks!
Hi there! We haven't tested the Lagom Mini yet, but we have plans to do that soon. 🤍☕️
how does the espresso taste compared to JMax? Just wanted to know if its worth it to upgrade or just keep my JMax.
Top top
Where did you get this portafilter? I’m new to espresso world, and i have my dads Via Venezia. I think it’s a 53mm portafilter, but it’s broken…
Hi there! Portafitlers are slightly different in sizes, even if they have the same width such as 53mm or 58mm, their ears might be different in sizes. You should google thay to find the right fit for it as 53mm are not thay common 🤍☕️
I'm looking for an upgrade to my existing Baratza Encore, primarily to improve espresso grinds. Would this be a significant improvement or do I need to look into a higher price class?
Hi there! It would be a wonderful upgrade over the Encore due to its overall practicality and single dose ability. However, if you are looking for a real change, a flat burr grinder will give you a real change and you will be able to test the differences between a flat and conical.

Goodluck! 🤍☕️
What grind setting are you using for espresso? I'm using 2.5 and it's way too coarse.
Hi there, we use 2.3 up to 3.2 . Your grinder might be slightly different in grind range, that is okay ☕️🤍
@@ourcoffeeshelter thanks for reassuring
What does the water sprinkled uses for?
It is called RDT method. We have shared two videos about it. You can find them in our "Helpful Tips" playlist 🤍☕️👏
@@ourcoffeeshelter apppreicate!
Hi,
What number on grind size (Varia adjustment digit) you use for espresso in this video?
Hi there! We found our grinder's range for espresso to be between 2.2 and 3.5 ☕️🤍
@@ourcoffeeshelter been messing with my Gen 2 vs3 I just received yesterday. The manual says espresso 1-3, but anything in that range absolutely chokes my Bambino on 17-18g dose. Managed to get a decent pull (1:2ish) at 4.5 with a 16g dose but isn’t that too course, as per the manual?
@@ourcoffeeshelterside note, I’m using the hypernova burrs, if that changes anything. Yesterday was my first ever pull, so I’m learning (re: my first comment)
@@jonathanr3439 Hi there, congratulations. The manual is there just for a starting reference. Each coffee is different than the other. Also, this was the Gen 1, with Gen 2, it is around 3 to 4.
Feel free to check this video to hear about our opinion in the VS3 Gen 2

Hello, can a coffee grinder make a grinding for a jezva? At what minimum value do coffee beans stick?
What spray ?
Hi there! Some grinders produce static electricity while grinding the beans. The ground coffee will stuck in the inside of the grinder and leave some retention.

Maravilloso vídeo, un placer. ¿Cuál és el título de la canción por favor? Gracias
Hi there! We have a paid subscription from EpidemicMusic in order to be eligible to use copyright music from their music library without any constrictions.. You can check them here:

As for what is the song, it is a bit difficult for us to keep track of each one in different videos and different comments. To help you with that, there is an application called "Shazam" , once you download it and open it, it will give you the name of any music or song playing.
Hope you have a lovely day! ☕️🤍👏
Muchas gracias por tú pronta respuesta. Me encanta toda la maquinaria que utilizas, és un placer ver tus vídeos, sigue así, gracias. Un saludo desde España.
Whats that yellow gold thing that goes on top of the portafilter and how do i get it? :)
How long does it take to grind 18g & what grind size did you set it to?😅
Does all this stuff really make an espresso better?
Hi there! Some are a must. However, there are many budget friendly accessories. It is all about the practicality and how much you are welling to invest in a tool. 🤍☕️
Hello , what is the spray you used on the coffee beans at the beginning?
It’s water, to reduce static electricity.
@@yonutzradu thank you 👍
Hi there! This method is called RDT. We have made two videos about it and explained in details in the discription section under those videos. Feel free to check them in our "Helpful Tips" playlist in our channel 🤍☕️👏
@@ourcoffeeshelter thanks 😊
Do you like this grinder or the femobook one better?
Hi there! It is not fari to compare the two and the price is almost the double. We can say that both of them are well priced and worth it. The Femobook will give better filter results 👌🤍☕️
@@ourcoffeeshelter Does the Varia give good espresso results?
@@cindywang9803 Hi there, we did mention everything in details in the discription, did you check it ?
You can find it on the top corner while playing the video on the three dots 👆👉 (•••)
Kahve yaptığınız bir mekan var mı? deneyimlemek isteriz 🥰
👏👏👏
are you spraying water mist before?
yes! its to reduce static retention in the grinder, helps a lot
Whats you spray on coffee seeds?
Hi there! Some grinders produce static electricity while grinding the beans. The ground coffee will stuck in the inside of the grinder and leave some retention. Additionally, the coffee will come out flying and sticks everywhere due to the static electricity. Adding a splash of water will moist the beans and solve the issue 🤍☕️
เพอร์เฟค👍🏻
What accessories and machine are you using?
what kind of machine brand you are using ?
Hi there! It is the Lelit Mara X by Lelit 🤍☕️instagram.com/lelit_official?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=
looks like the three sprays didn't help, still grinds around the grinder.
Hi, difference in taste compared to the niche zero ?
Hi there! The Niche is a stronger grinder and it might perform better in light roasted coffee beans as the tasting notes were slightly more enjoyable. However, you can consider them very similar in taste overall. The biggest differences are the build quality, motor size, burrs size, and the longevity of the Motor itself 🤍☕️
Does the dial migrate during the grind?
Hi there, we did hear about this happening to a few friends, most of them got it fixed bu adding foodgrade grease to the thread of the hopper.
In our case, both the Gen 1 and Gen 2 VS3 grinders has no issues whatsoever ☕️🤍
@@ourcoffeeshelter good to know. Thanks!
