Machine Overview

The Turin DF54 grinder is priced at $229 and aims at beginner users, making it an entry-level option for home baristas. In contrast, the Eureka Mignon Libra, priced at $799, targets intermediate users, offering features that suit more experienced coffee enthusiasts. Both models are classified as semi-automatic grinders, but their pricing and target skill levels clearly distinguish them in the market.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of grinding information, the Turin DF54 utilizes 54mm flat burrs made from custom stainless steel, while the Eureka Mignon Libra is equipped with slightly larger 55mm stainless steel burrs. Both grinders feature stepless adjustment, allowing for precise grind size alterations, but differ in dosing mechanisms; the DF54 employs a single-dose hopper with an on/off button, while the Mignon Libra offers a hopper and measures grind by weight, which can enhance consistency and efficiency for the user. The retention for the DF54 is lower at less than 0.1 g, compared to the Mignon Libra's retention of 1-1.5 g, impacting the wasted coffee grinds after each use.

Features Comparison

Key features further distinguish the grinders: the Turin DF54 does not support adjustable RPM settings, while the Eureka Mignon Libra operates at a fixed RPM of 1350, facilitating faster grinding speed at 11 seconds for 18 grams of coffee. The DF54 has a grind range that covers both pour-over and espresso, whereas the Mignon Libra is focused solely on espresso. Lastly, neither model supports swappable burrs, which may limit users' ability to customize their grinding experience over time.
