She loves trail running, rock climbing, coffee, food, and her tiny dog — and writing about all of them. Consider the Eureka Mignon Crono or Mignon Brew Pro – or the new Mignon Zero Brew for a single-dosing option.

Faster grinding also means less time to generate heat, so you’ll get better flavour from your ground coffee.

This allows you to block the coffee beans, remove the hopper, and access the burrs without first emptying the hopper. If you're looking to make espresso at home, you know that the grinder is the most important thing to produce great tasting coffee. The Eureka Mignon Specialita grinder is the perfect home coffee grinder for producing everything from single-dose espressos to filter brew grounds.
