So, earlier this AM while perusing FleaBay, I came across a listing for a Baratza Encore coffee grinder. But it did not look like any Encore I've seen. As it was an "Esatto". So I do some research and find it's an accessory for pretty much all the Baratza cone grinders (Encore, Virtuoso, Encore Plus and a few more). It attaches to the base, and then controls the grind mechanism based on weight not time. Now, how cool is that? Anyway person said they did not know much about the grinder and had it for $75 as BIN. Turns out that attachment is like $150 alone! This thing was worth the gamble IMO. Since the Virtuoso Plus has an electronic timer I would have to bypass that internally or I could rebuild the Encore and put the nicer burrs in it.
