Mignon Specialita

Surprised Eureka isn’t higher. My Eureka Mignon Specialita has easily been the most reliable and stable grinder I’ve owned. I’ve been in the hobby for about 25 years now so I’ve had several in that time. A single piece of data I know but the design and operation is remarkably consistent and dependab

Would go grinder first if you're happy with the performance of the Breville. Save yourself some money and replace it when it fully breaks. Since you drink mostly americanos I wouldn't go over the top with a grinder. Probably something with a hopper for an easy workflow. Eureka Mignon Specialita shou

I went for the Breville Dual Boiler and Eureka Mignon Specialita. Had both for 5 years now and had no issues. If you enjoy milk in your coffee and will be making more than one coffee at a time. Then a duel boiler allows for greater throughput

Intentionally designed ))) what a bs ))) as a long term owner of specialita I can confirm the bad metal casting quality of the entire burr carrier and grinding chamber. Mine also was very rough and with sharp edges. The metal is Selumin or similar cheap aluminum alloy. I was thinking of re design th

A lot of people like the Baratza Sette, and though I've never used one I used a Vario for a lot of years. The Eureka line, though, is great. In addition to producing great coffee it's bulletproof, the build quality is very high, and it takes up very little counter space. If you can swing it, the Mig
