EspressoBot Comparison

Machine Overview

The Timemore Sculptor 064S and the Eureka Mignon Libra are both semi-automatic espresso grinders designed for intermediate skill levels. The Sculptor 064S is priced at $499, making it a more affordable option compared to the Mignon Libra, which retails at $799. Both grinders are geared towards users who are familiar with espresso grinding, indicating that they have features that appeal to individuals looking to refine their brewing techniques.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of grinding information, both grinders utilize a flat burr method. The Timemore Sculptor features a 64mm steel burr with a stepless adjustment, allowing precise grind size modifications. In contrast, the Eureka Mignon Libra has a smaller 55mm stainless steel burr and also employs stepless adjustment but offers a combination of grind by weight and timed dosing. The Sculptor uses a single-dose hopper, promoting freshness with minimal retention (<0.1g), while the Mignon Libra has a standard hopper type with a retention between 1 - 1.5g.

Features Comparison

Key features of these grinders present some distinct differences. The Sculptor 064S boasts adjustable RPM ranging from 800 to 1200, providing flexibility in grinding speed, whereas the Eureka Mignon Libra has a fixed RPM at 1350. Both grinders cover a full range for espresso grinding, but the Sculptor also accommodates other methods. Neither model supports swappable burrs, ensuring that users will rely on the factory-installed burrs for optimal performance.
