Eureka Mignon Specialità Smart in the test – is buying the new smart grinder worth it?
The Eureka Mignon Specialità Smart promises nothing less than to make grinding revolutionarily simple. Thanks to the new SMART Technology and the Burrs Distance Detection System, the precise adjustment of the grind size should become child's play. But does the grinder really deliver what it promises? We put it to the test.
Design & workmanship – compact, high-quality & stylish
Visually, Eureka stays true to itself: The Mignon Specialità Smart comes in the familiar angular design but looks even more modern thanks to the new 2.8-inch touchscreen. The workmanship is, as you know from Eureka, excellent. The new 300g bean container with metal clasp sits firmly, the metal fork for hands-free grinding is extremely robust and height-adjustable.
Test conclusion design:
➔ Simple, high-quality & functional – perfect for any home barista station.
Grind adjustment in the test – precision on a new level
The highlight of the test is clearly the Burrs Distance Detection System. The grinder shows the burr distance in real time – finally, you know exactly where the zero point is! In combination with the stepless, micrometric grind adjustment (Eureka-patented), you can easily achieve the optimal grind size for espresso, mocha, or filter coffee.
Test conclusion grind size:
➔ Never guess again! Grind sizes can hardly be set more precisely and reproducibly.
Noise & operation – Silent Technology convinces
In operation, the Mignon Specialità Smart is pleasantly quiet. Eureka's Silent Technology is not a marketing promise but reality: the grinder is one of the quietest in its class in the test. Thanks to the new touch display with timer function, two doses (e.g., single shot & double shot) can be saved. A single dose mode is also available.
Test conclusion noise & operation:
➔ Whisper-quiet grinding & intuitive operation – absolutely practical for everyday use, even for beginners.
Grind result in test – consistent quality with every dose
Whether espresso for the portafilter machine (E61, dual boiler, heat exchanger) or coarse grind for the French press – the Specialità Smart delivers a homogeneous grind result without clumping thanks to the ACE system. The 55 mm flat burrs made of hardened steel ensure even extraction with full aroma.
Test conclusion grind result:
➔ Consistent, outstanding results – exactly what home baristas expect.
