Eureka Mignon Specialita Overview
The Eureka Mignon Specialita is a compact grinder whose 55 mm flat burrs, made of hardened steel, deliver more output than any other grinder in Eureka’s Mignon range. Driven by a 1350 RPM motor, it grinds 1.4 to 1.8 g per second for espresso and 1.9 to 2.5 g per second for brew methods, which means an 18 g double dose can be ground in roughly 10 seconds.
Its touch screen is unusual for a grinder this small, with large, clear figures and plus and minus buttons that adjust grind time in tenths of a second. You can move freely between single and double doses, grind continuously in manual mode or lock the timed settings. Eureka’s patented micrometric adjustment gives smooth, stepless grind changes, and the ACE system cuts static to reduce clumping and keep doses consistent. Running at about 73 dBA and standing under 14 inches tall, it fits comfortably into most kitchens.

Frequently asked questions
What burrs does the Eureka Mignon Specialita use?
The Mignon Specialita is fitted with 55 mm flat hardened steel burrs driven by a 1350 RPM motor. Eureka says these burrs deliver more output than the other grinders in its Mignon range, which is why the Specialita is positioned as a fast espresso grinder in a compact body.
How fast does the Mignon Specialita grind?
It grinds 1.4 to 1.8 g per second for espresso and 1.9 to 2.5 g per second for brew methods. In practice that means an 18 g double dose can be ground in roughly 10 seconds, so you are not waiting long between shots.
How loud is the Specialita?
Eureka rates the Specialita at about 73 dBA. The ACE system reduces static so grounds clump less and doses stay consistent, and the grinder stands under 14 inches tall, so it fits comfortably into most kitchens without taking much counter space.
How do you set doses on the Mignon Specialita?
A touch screen with large, clear figures and plus and minus buttons adjusts grind time in tenths of a second. You can move freely between single and double doses, grind continuously in manual mode, or lock the timed settings so other users cannot change them.
Is the grind adjustment stepped or stepless?
Stepless. Eureka’s patented micrometric adjustment gives smooth, continuous grind changes, which helps when dialing in a new coffee. The adjustable portafilter fork is designed to hold any portafilter on the market.
