Eureka Mignon Specialita 55 Espresso Grinder — Black (EME55-001-16CR)

The Eureka Mignon Silent Range Specialità 16cr is a compact electric coffee grinder designed for consistent, quiet grinding at home or in small commercial settings. It combines a robust steel construction with 55 mm hardened steel burrs and a stepless micrometric adjustment system that allows precise control of grind size for espresso and filter brewing. The grinder includes features to reduce noise, control static and dosing, and a hands-free portafilter fork for easy single-dose grinding.

Advantages

The grinder operates with Silent technology to reduce vibration and noise, and the ACE system limits clumping and electrostatic charge for cleaner dosing. Its stepless micrometric adjustment moves the lower burr for accurate, repeatable settings and allows quick maintenance without losing calibration. The 55 mm hardened steel burrs and a design tailored for both espresso and brew ensure consistent particle distribution and reliable extraction.

Suitable for

• Home baristas seeking a compact countertop grinder with precise grind control
• Small offices or light commercial use where low noise is important
• Users who prepare espresso and pour-over/filter coffee with the same grinder
• Those who prefer a hands-free portafilter workflow while dosing

When it may not be suitable

This grinder is sized and spec’d for home and light commercial environments; it may not meet the throughput requirements of high-volume cafés. While the 55 mm burrs provide excellent performance for most home and small-shop needs, users requiring extremely fast bulk grinding for heavy commercial use should consider larger, high-capacity machines.

How to use

Fill the plastic bean hopper with up to the specified capacity of beans and select grind settings using the stepless micrometric adjustment for the desired particle size. Use the touchscreen to choose one of the programmed doses or manual operation. Position the portafilter on the adjustable hands-free fork to dose directly into the filter basket or use a dosing cup. After grinding, remove the portafilter or cup and tamp as usual. Follow routine cleaning and burr maintenance to preserve grind consistency and to perform quick maintenance without losing calibration.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended use: home, office, or light commercial—check daily throughput needs
• Noise sensitivity: features Silent technology to reduce noise but still requires outlet power
• Compatibility: universal adjustable portafilter fork fits most portafilters
• Maintenance: regular cleaning and occasional burr replacement are required for optimal performance

Usage recommendations

For stable espresso dosing, set the stepless micrometric adjustment while observing grind time and extraction, then use the touchscreen dose presets for consistent results. Clean the hopper and burrs regularly and use the ACE system benefits by occasionally grinding a small amount to reduce static before dosing into the portafilter.
