Eureka Mignon Specialità
We may earn a commission when you buy through links on this page. It doesn't change our picks. How we're paid
A compact, metal-bodied espresso grinder with 55 mm flat burrs, stepless adjustment and timed dosing. Reviewers single out how quiet it is. It is the step up for people who outgrow a $200 grinder.
Who it's for
Good fit if
you mostly drink espresso, stick with one coffee for a while, and want a quiet grinder that sits neatly next to the machine.
Skip it if
you switch beans or brew methods often (the stepless dial is hard to return to a setting) or mostly brew pour-over.

What reviewers agree on
Each point is made by at least two of the independent reviews linked after it. We don't own or test the products we cover; see how we choose.
- It is very quiet for an electric grinder. (Coffee Chronicler, Kaffeemacher)
- Retention is low, so you rarely need to purge old grounds. (Coffee Chronicler, Kaffeemacher)
- It grinds well for espresso, with consistent shots once dialed in. (Coffee Chronicler, Kaffeemacher)
- The body is compact and sturdy. (Coffee Chronicler, Kaffeemacher)
- Timed dosing works well, and you can also use it to single dose. (Coffee Chronicler, Kaffeemacher)
- The stepless dial is small and hard to return to an earlier setting, which makes switching between coffees fiddly. (Coffee Chronicler, Kaffeemacher)
Worth knowing
- Only two independent reviews met our standard for this grinder, so every point above comes from both.
Raised by one reviewer: beans can "popcorn" when single dosing and it is less impressive for pour-over (Coffee Chronicler); the plastic hopper and lid can crack, the fork isn't steady enough for hands-free grinding, and grounds warm up over repeated shots (Kaffeemacher).
How it compares
- vs. DF54 (about $229–275): also stepless with flat burrs and even lower retention, but single-dose only and less polished.
- vs. Breville Smart Grinder Pro ($199.95): stepped conical burrs, louder, a third of the price.
- vs. Baratza Encore ESP ($199.95): covers drip and espresso in one dial, mostly plastic, a third of the price.
