Eureka made one of our favorite home espresso grinders even better, with the new Oro Mignon XL. This similarly-sized, compact grinder competes with commercial-grade grinders in speed, accuracy of grind, and build quality like the Atom 65, all while maintaining the features most beneficial to the home barista.

With large, 65 mm flat, stainless steel burrs and upgraded motor speed of 1650 RPMs, grinding is quicker, and the grounds produced are fluffier, promoting better extraction and reducing your risk of channeling. You can say goodbye to your excess distribution methods and trust the Mignon XL to simplify your routine, improve your shots and increase your overall consistency.  

While grinding 20g of coffee in about 6-7 seconds, Eureka still managed to keep its signature nearly-silent grinding and single-dosing capabilities. You can expect the Oro to feel similar to the other grinders in the Mignon line. It has nearly the same footprint — measuring 15 inches tall, 4 ½ inches wide, and 7 inches deep. It’s worth noting if you have low counter clearance, it’s an inch taller than the other Mignon grinders. The Oro uses the same hopper with a 300g capacity as well as the programmable, touchscreen display with intuitive timed dosing features. Retention is extremely low and the large adjustment knob makes fine-tuning espresso and recipe repeatability possible.

If you’re looking to replicate shots from your favorite cafe but want to keep space and noise to a minimum, this is a great option. The Eureka Oro produces a smooth, balanced espresso which compliments any milk-based beverage. For those who value consistency, quality, and simplicity, this checks all the boxes for better coffee at home.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Eureka Mignon Oro XL compare to other Mignon grinders?

The Oro XL features upgraded 65mm burrs (versus 55mm in other Mignons) and a faster 1650 RPM motor, grinding 20g in 6-7 seconds. It maintains the same compact width and depth but stands one inch taller at 15 inches. The larger burrs produce fluffier grounds that reduce channeling risk while keeping Eureka's signature quiet operation.

Is the Eureka Oro XL good for single-dosing espresso?

Yes, the Oro XL excels at single-dosing with extremely low retention despite its 300g hopper capacity. The combination of minimal retention and precise timed dosing via the touchscreen display makes it ideal for switching between beans. The large adjustment knob allows for fine-tuning and recipe repeatability shot after shot.

What's the grind quality difference between the Oro XL and commercial grinders like the Atom 65?

The Oro XL competes directly with commercial grinders like the Atom 65 in speed, accuracy, and build quality thanks to its 65mm flat stainless steel burrs. The fluffier grind particle distribution promotes better extraction and reduces channeling, often eliminating the need for additional distribution tools. This commercial-grade performance comes in a home-friendly package with lower noise levels.

How loud is the Eureka Mignon Oro XL when grinding?

The Oro XL maintains Eureka's signature nearly-silent grinding operation despite its powerful 1650 RPM motor and fast grinding speed. This makes it ideal for home environments where noise is a concern, especially for early morning espresso routines or open-concept living spaces.
