Machine Overview

The Eureka Mignon Specialita is priced at $649, catering to an intermediate skill level, while the Eureka Mignon Oro is available for $799, designed for advanced users. Both grinders belong to the semi-automatic category and are made by the same brand, Eureka. The price difference reflects the additional features and capabilities of the Oro model.

Brewing Comparison

Both grinders utilize a flat burr grinding method but differ in burr diameter and material. The Mignon Specialita has a 55mm hardened steel burr, while the Mignon Oro features a larger 65mm Pure Diamond® steel burr, offering potentially finer grind consistency. The Specialita employs timed dosing with a hopper, allowing for convenient preparation, while the Oro operates with a single dose hopper and an On/Off button for more precise dosing control, catering to coffee enthusiasts who prefer single doses for greater freshness.

Features Comparison

In terms of key features, the Mignon Specialita has a grind range designed for espresso, with a stepless adjustment scale allowing for fine-tuning. The Oro also offers a grind range for espresso but includes an increased RPM of 1650 compared to the Specialita's 1350, which can lead to quicker extraction times. Neither grinder has adjustable RPM or swappable burrs, focusing instead on delivering a consistent grind without these advanced features, giving each model its unique advantages for its target user.
