Mignon Filtro

Eureka Mignon Filtro/Notte/Silenzio. Any electric grinder is loud, if you don't want noise, get hand grinder instead. 

Eureka Mignon it is. You can buy a third-party steps dial (Etsy should have it) that would help you go back and forth. 

To make a long story short: I'm coming from a Bambino and I wanted to step up my game by going straight to the big leagues, having been able to get a good price on the Wendougee Data S. The machine is great. Regarding grinders, I went from a Eureka Mignon filtro grinder when I was a student, whose burrs I changed to espresso burrs, but I quickly saw its limitations. I switched again when the Mahlkönig X64SD came out; I had an alignment problem that I couldn't solve, and despite all my efforts, I couldn't reproduce the shots from my favorite coffee shop. The Wendougee is set up correctly, the problem is probably with the grinder... So I want to upgrade that one too. Aside from that, I have a 1zpresso j-ultra, which is nice for darker roast coffee, and I'd like something to deal with some medium/light roasted beans. What do you recommend? My budget is around €1000. I've considered the DF83, but also all those recent grinders that weigh the coffee for a more pleasant workflow (fiorenzato...) , but on the other hand, there's no way to change the rotation speed... Is that a good compromise?

Yep, I have two eureka mignons. One is the silenzio for espresso, the other is their filter grinder. Especially with the dial on the mignons, I got fed up redialling when I wanted to swap between brew types. Heck, I’d almost buy a third for a ‘guest bean’ 😂

What about something like the eureka filtro or crono? Both are Designed for filter coffee. Hopper fed. Very reasonable price wise. From a company that has been going for 100 years. Quality. Built like tanks. Will last a lifetime. The philos is great (I have one myself and use it for espresso ) but you don’t need to spend that much for a filter coffee grinder.

For light roasts yes but coffee overall no. It is better work flow imo. The eureka is good for traditional while the ode shines at light roasts but in a cleaner traditional way. It isn't clarity forward like a zp6 or even the c40. If you are into specialty and light roasts the ode is worth it.

Eureka Mignon Filtro, very happy with it.

I have the Mignon Filtro (with the old burrs, that produce less uniform grinds) and the Ode Gen 1 with upgraded burrs. I just find the Ode so much nicer to use in terms of workflow, adjusting grind size and from a cleanliness perspective. And the Ode Gen 2 should be even more fun due to the de-Ionizer.
