Eureka Mignon Specialità or Eureka Mignon Perfetto: which one should you choose?

Almost one year has already passed since Eureka first introduced to the coffee world the new Eureka Mignon. After one year we can say that the efforts of the Florentine company to create new and largely improved coffee grinders were paid off. 

Almost one year has already passed since Eureka first introduced to the coffee world the new Eureka Mignon. After one year we can say that the efforts of the Florentine company to create new and largely improved coffee grinders were paid off. The New Eureka Mignon now comes with a much broader list of specifications (3 versions and 87 different colour combinations). Wonderful isn’t it? Absolutely. Clients are now free to choose their perfect Eureka Mignon for their needs. There is, however, one problem with all of this freedom of choice: which one should I choose?

To start off, what you should know is that there are 3 versions of the Eureka Mignon: Silenzio, Pefetto and Specialità. The Silenzio is sort of the ‘entry level’ of the three, it features the a design, the Silent technology we have seen before in Eureka's more professional grinders, an anti-clump system, and a Standard ‘hands-free’ Fork. Quite a lot of new changes for such a little grinder. If you enjoyed the simplicity of the old Mk 2, then you should go for this one.

The next two models, called the Eureka Mignon Perfetto and the Eureka Mignon Specialità, both feature a new touch screen and apparently look the same. There is, nonetheless, one main difference in the outside. If you look closely you will notice that the Eureka Mignon Perfetto uses a bigger, more colourful knob Eureka calls the ‘Easy setting’. It basically allows you to switch to different grinding techniques in a matter of milliseconds. Turkish, Moka, Drip, French press, Espresso, you name one and turn the knob of a few degrees and there you have it. So if you are a man that loves his morning espresso but your wife prefers French press for breakfast, this is the coffee grinder to go for.
