Varia VS6 Hypernova Ultra Plasma 58 mm Flat Burrs
Clean, juicy and sweet espresso with a balanced body, filter coffee with high clarity and pleasant acidity: that is what Varia designed the Hypernova Ultra Plasma flat burrs for the VS6 to deliver.
The 58 mm flat burrs are made from 440 stainless steel with a plasma coating and replace the standard set in the VS6. Coffee Coaching Club is the official Swiss importer of Varia.
Features
Refined Depth
Varia describes the Hypernova Ultra Plasma as burrs with significantly fewer fines and a consistent particle size across the entire RPM range. Uniformity is very high, and the profile combines clarity and sweetness with a balanced, syrupy body, similar to the Supernova burrs, with added sweetness. They suit espresso and filter, with a slight edge towards espresso.
The details in everyday use
The plasma coating increases durability and heat resistance. The cutting edges stay cooler during grinding, which extends the lifespan and performance of the burrs.
In the fine range, the geometry improves particle distribution. The burrs grind slightly slower, but with higher consistency, for espresso and filter alike. Uniform particles are the basis for a controlled extraction, which you steer by weight. We grind fine, start at 14.5 g and work our way up, usually to 17 g, at a ratio below 1:2.
