Product Description
The Eureka Mignon Specialita walks the line between a focus on grind quality and unprecedented convenience for the home barista. The grinder starts with Eureka's attention to internals, coupling a 55mm flat burrset to a stepless grind system that adjusts from below the motor to make cleaning and disassembly easier. This winning combo comes ensconced in a sound-insulating case of thick metal mated with rubber mounts and gaskets that reduce the sound of crushing beans to a whisper. Finally, a programmable touchscreen makes it easy to set your espresso dose for easy accuracy.

Silenced GrindA sound-insulated case helps keep the Specialita quieter than most. The exclusive anti-vibration solution reduces the grinding noise by approximately 20 dB compared to the conventional grinders and paves the way for a new way of grinding coffee: accurate and quiet. |
Touchscreen ControlsAdjust your grind time for single, double and continuous modes with a backlit resistive touchscreen. Press-and-hold the screen before turning on to see the grinders total shot count. |
New ChuteA wider chute design with Eureka's anti-clumping system makes for fluffier grounds. Eureka's ACE system helps prevent clumping by eliminating static in ground coffee, which in turn ensures dose consistency. |

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The user-controls are superb, as is the angle of the shoot -- the ground coffee flows effortlessly in to my pour-over filter holder with wet filter paper already in it, that I hold with one hand (I momentarily press the button that is now behind the filter holder with the other hand, easy to do, no problem as there are with other machines that depend on a portafilter hitting the start button automatically when installed (which will work on this model too, but you can still reach the button to manually start the machine, a thoughtful feature). No need to hold the button down, the timer function shuts off the grinding automatically (just do a few experiments to dial-in the correct grind and the correct grinding time, both of which settings survive a power-off, the grind setting because it is a manual control, and the time setting because the manufacturer thought this thru ... you can even lock-out the time adjustment buttons so that no one can re-set your chosen time accidentally without knowing the magic button-press sequence to unlock, clever!).
The machine does not move at all on the counter while grinding, so you don't need to hold it down. Hence one hand is free while the grinding happens, which is useful since I am grinding for about 20 seconds (21.5 to be exact, since I have set this on the machine); I turn on the kettle to boil the water, etc.
The grind consistency is perfect, every time, and the clean-up is trivial, a quick swipe with a brush. No fly-away grinds at all (a constant problem with my old Bunn). Plus, as other reviewers have said, the machine is very quiet, compact, and looks very cool on the counter ... my guests always comment on it! And it's reasonably priced compared to others in this class.
The bean hopper is not opaque, and does not have a vacuum push-down sealing membrane, so I only add beans to grind right away. I would prefer to keep some beans in the hopper, and re-fill only every-few-days. So I have ordered a custom stainless-steel 5-sided (no-top) box (aka inverted tray) to turn upside-down and act as a sheath-like cover for the hopper (from one of the very-reasonable on-line metal machine shops), and some silicone pads to trim and make a push-down seal. I'll let you know how it all turns out. I am matching the mirror-finish of the machine itself, so I hope it all looks good and not "home-made", we'll see. If the ugly "very shallow I-care-too-much-about-looks and love to show-off" me surfaces, I could always remove the metal sheath and hide it when company comes over ... and when the snooty guests say "you shouldn't expose coffee beans to light" I can produce the custom-made metal part with a flourish and with my best snark say "if I knew you knew that fact then I would have left the cover I had custom-machined in place, I only took it off to expose these beautifully-roasted dark beans".
Gripes so far: I opened the lid for a peek and to clean and found a bunch of grounds near the front above the exit chute - it's not leaking from the chute - either from bellowing or from the grinds that build up in the rubber gasket that seals the hopper at the lid. Grinds will go down inside the housing so will need to open the bottom to get them out :(
Other Gripe: One of the screws that holds the upper burr carrier is slightly damaged - like the screwdriver "skipped" when they were tightening :( I will need to replace it if I remove the burr carrier more than a few times. I am going to contact the seller and see if they have replacements.
Other thoughts: The bellows works well but if you bellow after grinding, make sure to empty the grinds cup - if you leave your dose in there, it will blow grinds out and make a bit of a mess. They should have included the 80g grinds cup that comes with the Filtro Silent - I think it would have worked better.
Without RDT there's quite a bit of static/faff after grinding. But I'm grinding coarse, so it's expected. If you are grinding espresso you probably won't have much.
So far my cups have been very good when using quality beans. The flavor profile is much different than my Comandante C40. I don't know how to quantify - I guess more dark chocolate from the Eureka (I'm using cinnamon roast/medium roast beans though).
I thought I might not like the grind adjustment knob (being stepless and not on a fixed scale) but it's OK. I don't think switching between filter and espresso would be hard. Go back to the "zero point" and coarsen from there would be easy to dial in espresso. It's similar to my Comandante in that respect.
The aftermarket replacement dial/knob thing I got doesn't work with mine. The vendor is trying to fix this but Eureka changed something and the vendor mentioned they may stop making them because can't guarantee it will work on all models.
If it lasts as long as I hope it does, this will be my last grinder purchase. I can't see a need for another grinder, and if I decided to swap the burrs for the Brew Pro set, I can probably get better filter results - although I'm not complaining - the stock burrs are doing great.
Over all, worth the price I paid.
