Mignon Libra

The grinder is the most important thing, more than the machine. But good ones are expensive. There are many recommended here, but I always recommend Eureka Mignons for their heavy, commercial look, reliability, and overall good grind. But they have a very big range of models. A Zero is cheapest for

So, the grinder is setup and grinding. Coming from a Eureka Specialita Turbo no tears yet. Look, I enjoy gatekeeping from time to time as much as the next guy. I get it, it's not a $3K Mahlkonig, it's not built as robustly as commercial machines, and the location of final assembly is different. Havi

Grind by Weight Mühle, zB Eureka Mignon Libra kombiniert mit einer fellow aiden oder Mokkamaster bringt wahrscheinlich top Kaffee hervor wenn die Bohnen auch entsprechend was taugen. Und der Aufwand ist fern von jeder Siebträger, Bohnen in den Hopper, gewünschte Menge auf Knopfdruck mahlen, in die K

I have the single dose version (basically) of the libra 65 AP - the mignon zero 65AP. I really like it, it was cheaper than the libra, and was a significant upgrade in consistency, build quality, and ability to dial in over my baratza encore ESP. Also unofficially you can change the burrs for any of

I went with a Profitec Go and Eureka Mignon grinder and feel like I made a great entry without needing to upgrade any time soon. For me, PID was a must to reduce sources of frustration and thereby Profitec Go (on discount) was most sensible if I wasn't going to add it myself on a silvia or gaggia. W

The geared adjustment adjustment setup is key, but is an inexpensive mod and can be 3d printed at home if you like. The only thing I think I'd upgrade

Ich denke die DF54 ist die beste Mühle generell und auch das Single Dosing ist kann sinn machen damit dein Kaffee immer "funktioniert" Time-Based Dosing ist in meiner Erfahrung einfach nicht so genau und du hast immer ne leicht andere Menge Kaffee die dann auch sehr anders schmecken kann. Für dich w

Agreed with this. Like I’ll pay more for GBW but for example on the mignons what’s virtually the same grinder moving from the zero to the libra roughly doubles the cost. Feels like it should be $100 or so

I am 4 months into Micra with Mignon Libra 65 AP. Since adding the new grinder in January it has made a huge difference especially not having to weigh beans every cup!

On my silenzio the accuracy was around 0.3 g when i still used the hopper. Switched to single dosing because it keeps the beans fresher. If gbw is worth it is subjective. I personally wouldn't get a libra but i am thinking of building the open source GbW project that exists for mignons
