Description
Eureka Mignon Silenzio Espresso Grinder
Mornings are tough enough: skip the noise with the Eureka Silenzio Espresso Grinder. The Silenzio takes Eureka’s home-size grinder and improves it with a new motor, anti-clumping system—and a custom-designed, sound insulated case. Rubber damping at motor mounts and around exit points like the throat and grind adjust knob reduce resonance for quieter grinding. The Silenzio may be quiet, but it packs in a host of Eureka’s famous features like stepless grind adjustment, easy-access burrs, and a bottom burr adjust that preserves your grind setting during disassembly. Finally, early-morning espresso that won’t take up space or wake the kids.
Features and Functionality
- Sound-insulated Case – A thick metal case filled with rubber mounts, gaskets, and covers make for muted sound and low resonance.
- Stepless 50mm Burrs – Sized for the home, the Silenzio’s 50mm burrs are built from resilient, hardened steel.
- Bottom-Burr Adjust – By adjusting below the motor mount, you can remove the top burr for cleaning without losing your grind setting.
- Timed Dosing – Adjust the timer on the side of case to grind your ideal dose.
- Redesigned Chute – A brand new assembly from the oringinal Mignon, the Silenzio’s chute is wider, sound insulated and features anti-clumping technology.
Pros
- Quiet – The Silenzio lives up to the name. You won’t find a quieter grinder (unless you opt for a hand grinder).
- Compact – If you have space restrictions on your countertop, this grinder will squeeze in almost anywhere.
- Clump-free – The redesigned grind path and clump crusher make for clean, smooth grinds.
Cons
- Basic Timer – The tiny timer knob on the side of the case is difficult to set the first few times you use it, since there are no real reference points.
