 Easy & clean single-dosing workflow

Once an outlier method of grinding, single-dosing is becoming the primary way home baristas grind because it is much easier to switch between coffees with various roast levels, origins, and types. Even better, the Zero has an average of 0.2g retention, meaning that you waste less coffee. The rubber bellows will help get every last granule of coffee into your dosing cup. Simply press on the bellows a few times with the hopper door closed and you're good to go. 

The included 58mm stainless steel dosing cup will help you keep your dosing consistent and help a seamless transition to your portafilter without spilling any coffee on your counter. You can even adjust the dosing cup rest to grind directly into your portafilter for more versatility. 

Enduring performance

One of the most important considerations when choosing an espresso-focused grinder is its grind quality. The Zero has 55mm flat stainless steel burrs and is paired with a powerful 310-watt motor. This combination reduces heat & friction during grinding, translating into less flavor stripped and less chances for clumping and static.

If you’re in the market for a new grinder and single-dosing is a high priority, we highly recommend looking at this one. With the Eureka Mignon Zero, you get the speed, accuracy, and build quality of high-end commercial grinders, with the simplicity and ease of use needed in a grinder for the home.
