I'm conflicted between the Baratza Sette 30 AP and the Eureka Mignon Manuale. Can anyone offer any advice against these two grinders?

Need suggestion to buy raw beans.

Prefer mandheling or anything similar.

hey guys, could use your opinion.

which one should i go for?

brand new breville barista express

or second hand silvia v5 + rocky

i hv a used breville barista express.... cos i got myself a oscar2.

you want to take a look? got for like 1.5 yrs ago and bout 5 cups per week for myself.

once you get used to it and decided to upgrade, it is easier to sell. just for your consideration

Kinda depends on your machine and how precise you need your grind size to be. I believe the Mignon will give you finer control for espresso grind size, and Eureka grinders tend to be built like tanks and last you for years. I'm a fan of the Sette for its speed, but the 30 will feel inadequate if you have non-pressurised baskets. Hope this helps.

Sette 30 AP is more for drip/filter if I'm not mistaken. From review, Eureka Mignon is built like a tank but its not without its cons, static but this is not an issue for most.

I'm a sette 270 user myself

i have the Mignon Manuale, it has anti clump feature so grinds are fluffy. very heavy and solid machine
no screens or anything fancy, just a basic grinder with portafilter actuation



just bought this kettle from Lazada recently, really liking it, previously was measuring with a thermometer, this built in is very nice

I'm looking at upgrading to mignon too for its built

i ve just got a preowned eureka mignon from of the the forumer here....

is a tank. petite... beside the static, the rest are so far so good...

just a small half click, makes a lot of diff in grind size.

but thts all i ve got for a week of testing.

this doesn't sound good, no?

Anyone have bought from this store https://www.lighthouse-coffee.com.my ? I want to buy the Timemore Slim Grinder. Quite cheap only RM350.

ermm..... how about if you just want to make a tiny/fine adjust on the grind size?

The grind adjustment is stepless. A full 'mark' is a substantial change. For me, about 10% of a mark is 5 seconds difference in espresso extraction, more or less.

10% = more or less 5s. Ok got it! Thx for the tips.

Ya, thts the point. Tht 10% is a very tiny twist... very delicate twist n 5s is a lot of diff... i hope i m
Right tho, still pretty new in all these coffee thing 😅

N also the grinds crumbs give me abit of headache, anyone has this prob.? How u guys solve it?

I'm not that careful in puck preparation, so perhaps the actual change is less than 5s if everything else held equal. I just try to target 45s to 55s including 15s preinfusion on the Flair. The manual pressure/pull allows some adjustment in timing as well.

Please elaborate on 'grinds crumbs'.

Crumbs... errmm as in the coffee grinds are stick together in a “crumbs” form.

I use toothpick to break it b4 i tamp it

strange, my setting is way different to yours
