Mignon Zero

I’m not sure you’ll get a grinder at $500 that will do all brew types. I have the Eureka Mignon Zero 65 grinder ($500) that is definitely more espresso-focused but it produces good pour over, etc. it’s just not great. The espresso off it is fantastic though. If you’re asking for a dream set up for a

I have the Eureka Mignon Zero 65. It's built like a tank, is surprisingly quiet, and makes nice espresso. I haven't seen any reason to complain about build quality yet. Retention is minimal if you give the bellows a good push every time. It's not a $3000 grinder but it's a lot of grinder for the mon

Eureka Mignon zero or 65 AP unless you like light roasts

Eureka Mignon Zero 65 AP. Cheaper than the Oro, with almost no difference. Better than the 55.

The Eureka Mignon Zero is a terrific grinder, check it out! You won't find many negative reviews compared to the DF64.

I'm not opposed to two grinders, but then the equation is different, do I get electric for espresso, then hand grind for pourover on the go? Or an all purpose on the go for having different options? (K ULTRA?) Or both AP electric and hand grinder for all options at home and away? Etc. Right now I'm

I just got a Eureka Mignon Zero 65 AP and am very pleased with the consistency and retention. No issues with static either that I can tell. It's a bit more than ur budget at $500+tax.
