Eureka Mignon Silenzio Stepless Doserless Espresso Coffee Grinder
The Eureka Mignon (formally replaced the Instantaneo) was definitely one of our top grinders of 2017. Furthermore, they have one-up’d themselves by introducing a new series of Mignons any barista can customize their needs to. What Eureka has done with these versions is take some of the technology found in the Eureka Atom and put it inside the compact design of the Mignon. Thus, we have the Eureka Mignon Silenzio: the first tier of upgraded Mignons, incorporating the most distinctive of Eureka’s innovations: it’s silencing technology. Choose whatever combination of exterior options of chute/body color to create a grinder that is personal to your taste!
Silent Technology
Eureka made waves when they released the quietest espresso grinder on the market: the Atom. Now, they’ve incorporated this Silent technology into these series of Mignon grinders. Have no worries about disturbing your loved ones in the morning when freshly grinding your coffee!
Easy controls
Located on the right of the grinder. The large switch turns the grinder on. The button on the lower right switches the grinder from semi-automatic (pushed out) to timer (pushed in) in timer mode. The knob on the lower left adjusts the amount of time the grinder will run. Turn clockwise to increase time and counter clockwise to decrease time. Push the button in front of the grinder underneath the coffee chute to start grinding.
Stepless Grinding Adjustment
Stepless grinding adjustment allows you to make the most finite adjustments to achieve the perfect grind.
Hands-Free Fork
Distance from top of fork to coffee chute is approximately 2.25″. It can be removed completely to put a container. Allows hands-free operation with spouted portafilters.
Optimally sized bean hopper
Holds approximately 8 ounces of roasted beans for plenty of espresso shots. Ergonomically design to keep the overall height low and not to stick out beyond the rest of the grinder. A set screw holds the hopper in place as opposed to other grinders which are friction fit. It is also equipped with a stopper if you want to remove the hopper with the beans in it, and a finger guard…just in case.
