The EVO Hybrid solves that: a compact precision grinder that grinds both electrically and manually, housed in a case that fits in a backpack. The same grind geometry as the stationary VS3 – just portable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVaria made a name for itself in the specialty scene with the VS3, and the EVO brings that DNA into a travel format. Coffee Coaching Club is the exclusive Swiss importer of Varia: we keep spare parts in stock and give you an honest opinion on whether the EVO or a stationary grinder suits your setup better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes the EVO special\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EVO is hybrid: the 80 RPM motor with li-ion battery grinds 20 grams for filter in about 40 seconds. At espresso fineness, it slows down – that's when you can attach the magnetic hand crank at any time and grind through manually. No either-or, both in one device. An auto-stop function and overload protection kick in when the hopper is empty or the motor senses too much resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e38mm Hypernova burr set\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EVO uses the 38mm Hypernova burr set in stainless steel – the same grind geometry as the stationary VS3. The precision-ground edges produce a tight particle distribution, so the aroma layers stay clearly separated: fruit notes stay fruity, chocolate stays chocolate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e140 grind settings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grind adjustment has 140 settings at around 10 micrometers per click. That covers Turkish mocha, espresso, filter, and cold brew, and lets you fine-tune between lighter and body-forward profiles within the espresso range. Every click noticeably shifts the extraction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBuild\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is CNC-machined from solid aluminum, with dual ball bearings for low-vibration, even grinding. With the motor, the EVO weighs 1.24 kg; as a pure hand grinder, 1 kg. The magnetic catch cup holds up to 30 grams and fits directly into a 58mm portafilter, no transferring needed. For travel, the EVO comes in a shock-absorbing EVA hard case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"ccc-compare-table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBurrs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e38mm Hypernova, stainless steel (VS3 geometry)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrind settings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e140 settings, around 10 microns per click\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower source\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ehybrid: 80 RPM motor and magnetic hand crank\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBattery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.4 V li-ion, 800 mAh, charges via USB-C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpeed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 g filter in about 40 seconds (electric)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProtection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAuto-stop and overload protection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHousing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCNC-machined solid aluminum, dual ball bearings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCapacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eup to 30 g, magnetic catch cup for 58mm portafilter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.24 kg with motor, 1 kg as a hand grinder\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEVO Hybrid Gen 2, hand crank, USB-C cable, EVA hard case\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColors\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eblack, silver, white\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho the EVO is for – and who it isn't\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's a fit if you travel a lot and don't want to go without good coffee, use a \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/flair-espresso\"\u003eFlair Espresso\u003c\/a\u003e or Aeropress as your travel setup, or you're looking for a compact second grinder for single-dosing at home.

This is exactly where the EVO earns its keep on the road. Our tip: bring the beans along in an \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/airscape\"\u003eAirscape\u003c\/a\u003e container – it slows down oxidation – and grind only right before brewing. That way, even in a holiday apartment, you get a cup close to the one you'd make at home.
