This machine I believe is identical to the Specialita, but comes with “diamond inside” burrs. Only in white for this deal, but comes 1kg of coffee.

I've had the Eureka Silenzio for a couple years now, and it's been great, but I wish I'd paid a bit more and got the Magnifico or Speciala model with a screen (instead of the crappy timer dial on the side).
The screen is over-rated in my opinion, I barely use/notice it.
Still better than having the manual timer that is incredibly sensitive and easy to bump/knock when cleaning
Are they much noisier than the Silenzio?
i got the Silenzio too (5 years now) and i feel the same. i wish i bought the Specialita :'(
I have the dual boiler and smart grinder pro for about 2 years now, and usually make milk coffees with lime blue brazil beans or similar.
I don't measure my input:output ratio, and usually just aim for a pressure of 9 bars and avoid any channelling by using a bottomless portafilter.
Found my shots to be more consistent now from the smart grinder pro after using a WDT tool to break the clumps.
Does anyone have any opinions or experiences on whether this is worth upgrading from the SGP?
I have the Baratza Encore Esp so can't comment on the Eureka but I would go for this instead, this will be my next grinder should I need to replace mine.
https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/916578Thanks - after looking at some reviews, this seems like a great option for someone who wants a good but relatively simple grinder. Looks like it's only been stocked at a few places locally, and sold out.
I'll need to keep an eye out.
This grinder is definitely better than the SGP, but if you enjoy your current coffee output then there's no real need to upgrade.
Agreed - would be a pretty noticeable step up, but if you're enjoying your coffee i'd avoid going down the rabbit hole of gear.
Thanks. This is what I was wondering. Like coffee is fine and nice enough. Just wasn't sure if my coffee would be significantly better if I bought this grinder. $700 for marginally better isn't worth it for me. Be a different story if my current grinder broke on me tho.
Yep, if your current grinder ever dies, something like this would be a perfect purchase.
I went from Breville Smart Grinder to Eureka Specialita (and then Turbo).
It grinds twice as fast, is much quieter and is solid as a rock, but I didnt notice a huge difference in flavour.
The grind was more consistent than the SG though (which resulted in more consistent shots).
A good upgrade imo.I went from an SGP to a specialita, and I cannot stress enough how HUGE of an upgrade it was. The smart grinder pro really really struggles to do espresso grind consistently and efficiently. This has allowed me to nail both standard blends with barely any adjustment to grind or dose, and has made any time I buy a fun single a pleasure to use rather than wasting multiple doses.
I would 100% upgrade again!
SGP is way too loud and very slow. The Eureka is a huge upgrade, far quieter and more than twice as fast. Although don't expect to notice a difference in coffee taste, the Eureka may be more consistent but I couldn't tell which was which with milk (then again I'm no coffee expert).
I went from smart grinder to specialita and was very pleased with the results. Specialita produces noticeably better shots in my opinion.
I think its a pretty common upgrade though and pretty sure you would see a concensus from people who have made it in favor of the specialita. That what I saw anyway when I bought one.
But if you like the coffee you are making there's a lot to be said for just doing what you are doing. These things are always a matter of personal taste.
Would this be much quieter than my Barazta Sette 270?
Correct.
The Sette is absurdly loud. My household avoided using it if anyone was asleep. Upgraded to a Specialita just so we didn't have to worry. So much quieter.
This is exactly my reason. With baby #2 on the way, I need something quieter. The Magnifico might be the answer
Not sure how fast this one grinds but the Sette does grind quite quick.
Underrated gem IMO, but yeah it’s not quietThis does 1.8g per second, which is pretty similar. There are some very quiet ones, but also slow.
Pulled the trigger on this.
Might get divorced after picking up the Dual Boiler offer a few weeks ago too
Might get divorced after picking up the Dual Boiler offer…
Don't hold your breath.
Thanks. Maybe one day I’ll pick one of these up and retire the other one for pour over duty
How would this compare to a DF54?
Messy?
Would this be good for pourover coffee? If not, what would be at this price range?
If it's strictly for filter or pour over, the Moccamaster KM5 could be a good option. You'll find it for around $600 from memory.
Thanks. Fellow Ode gen 2 is also a good option from what I have read. Just waiting for a sale below the usual $520
Why not check out the Baratza Encore ESP? I have it and the range from espresso right through to pour over is very good. Priced very well in Australia too
I'm not a fan of the (very similar) Specialita for pourover - actually consider it a mistake to have bought it on special from here as I mostly drink filter.
Understand it is quite good for espresso, but found it produces a lot of fines and airborne dust on coarser settings suitable for pourover. I went back to the Rancilio Rocky I was meant to be "upgrading" from and am now stuck with for longer after blowing my money on the Specialita.
Others have suggested better options. Keep an eye on gumtree and marketplace for deals.
Would you suggest this or DF64 to a friend as their first grinder?
Personally, I owned Specialita and would always recommend it. Had zero issues back then.
Now that I am on df83, I know it's not for new users. DF series can clog easily and is very noisy.
Haven't owned DF64
the df64 is a single dose grinder. In terms of coffee flavor it seems like there's not a lot between them. The df64 can be upgraded to better burrs but they cost about $300 so its then a big leap from this price point. Dont know about the diamond inside burrs in this deal but they do sound interesting.
Machines like specialita have timed dosing and a hopper. This means you can fill them with beans and then they will spit out something close to correct weight. HOWEVER this can vary a lot and depends on bean freshness and other factors. Variance in dose means variance in shot quality, which is why people go for single dose machines so they can weigh precise amounts of beans every time. The DF64 is supposed to have close to zero retention (it spits out what you put in). In my experience the specialita does have retention, sometimes quite a bit, but this can be improved somewhat by using a 3d printed slant stand so the spout is closer to vertical.
So between the two machines it depends on the workflow you want to engage in, and how fussy you are about dose precision.
I’m really struggling to justify dropping $700 on a grinder that’s only for home use. Is it really worth it? How big of a difference in coffee quality would I actually notice compared to, say, a decent $300 one?
I was the same and bought a manual grinder instead, 1zpresso. 6 months in… I could see myself getting an auto down the line
Having made the leap from the built-in grinder on a Breville Oracle to the Eureka Specialita, the difference in consistency was night and day. The Oracle didn't seem capable of producing the same quality cup day-to-day with its built-in grinder—it required constant tweaking and resulted in mediocre coffee in between adjustments. I can't speak to what a mid-range grinder would be like, but arguably the grinder is one of the most important and influential components in coffee making. Obviously, you can't miss what you've never had, but if you're a coffee enthusiast, I think you'll find something like this worthwhile. If not, you could always sell it on fb marketplace later.
I went from smart grinder to specialita and it was quite noticeable. My understanding is that after a certain price point returns start diminishing. There's a reason though that everyone is talking about these, FD64s and Niche grinders, etc though. If you want to save money you can grind really good shots with some manual grinders, but they are a bit of work to use. Some people pair them with electric drills (for motor drive) to get around the elbow grease. Can be done for about $200 +/-
How different is the Breville Smart Grinder Pro from this one? Would there really be a noticeable difference in the coffee?
Night and day difference.
Breville is fine for your first grinder (I had one) but it's quite clumpy and slow.
I couldn't tell the difference, but I'm not exactly a pro. The Eureka is more consistent but if you're drinking with milk you almost can't tell.
Was looking at that yesterday.
Could not live with the white.
