Machine Overview

The Eureka Mignon Zero is priced at $499 and caters to intermediate skill levels, while the Niche Duo is more expensive at $700 and targets advanced users. Both grinders are classified as semi-automatic, highlighting their versatility in coffee preparation. The difference in price and skill level indicates that the Niche Duo may offer additional features or capabilities that appeal to more experienced baristas.

Brewing Comparison

Both grinders utilize flat burrs made of hardened steel, with the Mignon Zero featuring a smaller burr diameter of 55mm compared to the Niche Duo's 83mm. They both offer stepless adjustment, allowing for precise grind size control, but differ in hopper type where both use a single dose approach. The Mignon Zero uses an On/Off button for primary dosing, while the Niche Duo employs an On/Off toggle switch, enhancing usability during the grinding process.

Features Comparison

In terms of features, the Niche Duo has swappable burrs, providing greater flexibility for users who may want to experiment with different grind profiles. The grind range for the Mignon Zero extends from full pour-over to espresso, while the Niche Duo is focused specifically on espresso. Additionally, the Niche Duo operates at a lower RPM of 530, compared to the Mignon Zero's 1650, which can affect the heat generated during grinding and potentially impact flavor extraction.
