Eureka Mignon Silenzio Coffee Grinder

The new Silenzio has the same knob and switch that you found on the previous generation Mignon Mk 2, which is a good thing because it was always very easy to operate. The switch is for the timer or manual mode while the knob is for the regulation of the timer. As the name suggests, the main difference with the previous generation is the silence. Thanks to an anti-vibration system called silent technology the coffee grinder is up to 20 dB quieter than the previous Mk 2. In practical terms this means being able to grind your coffee shot and be able to talk with anyone around you. The coffee grinder is also fitted with a system that eliminates the electrostatic charge of the ground coffee avoiding the clumps being formed and giving you a uniform and consistent ground coffee. Inside you will find 50 mm flat hardened steel burrs powered by a 1350 rpm motor and capable of 1,6 grams per second. The stepless micrometric regulation system will allow you to quickly pass to different ground settings from Turkish to French Press.

Pros

The Silence: as the name suggests, the Silenzio is extremely silent compared to any conventional coffee grinder. This makes it ideal for apartments with thin walls.

Compactness: this coffee grinder will fit basically everywhere, even in the smallest kitchens

Things to Consider

Careful with the hopper: the plastic hopper and the lid on top in particular, are fragile and can easily break if dropped.

Single and Double Doses: if you often jump between single and double doses then we recommend spending a little more and going for the Mignon Specialita’ or Perfetto. The touch screen allows programming both single, double or manual doses.
