My old Krups grinder died so it was time for an upgrade. I wanted something simple with no timers or touchscreens etc to go wrong and consign a basic device to scrap. I also wanted something that could survive any future upgrade from moka pot to espresso machine.
The Eureka Mignon Manuale ticked those boxes at a sensible price - it shares the fundamentals with the rest of the Mignon range without any of the frills. I was concerned that as it didn't have the noise reduction features that it'd be loud, but I needn't have worried because it is significantly less obnoxious than the old grinder. By comparison the grinding noise is actually quite pleasant. Another bonus is the complete lack of static electricity from the grinding which results in less mess. There is also a complete absence of clumping due to the very uniform grind - giving a very consistent flavour.
It took a few brews to dial-in the optimal grind for my Alessi 9090 stove-top 6 cup moka pot, but now that's done a 12 second grind gives precisely the right amount for a 3 cup brew and 22 seconds for a full 6 cup brew.
Clumsy Goat were most helpful in providing some additional dimensions on the phone which gave confidence to place the order online. The grinder was then delivered next-day.
All-in-all, an excellent service for an excellent product. Many thanks - I'm impressed!
