For professional baristas, please follow the coffee workshop (Wechat official account cafe_style)

Silvia V5 version, the main difference seems to be that the power indicator is separated from the heating lamp, there is a thermal insulation pad on the outside of the boiler, and the heating parts become externally connected (originally welded) and easy to replace.

Heating lamp, green is the power supply, orange is the heating indicator

Brass boiled head

Make and cook the handle

Eureka Mignon, this one has a good evaluation abroad, the metal fuselage, many colors can be selected, originally thought that the original factory attached bean trough will be too big, the result is also good, the special design 50mm cutterhead, the effect is comparable to 64mm, this one is mainly grinding espresso

The powder outlet is easy to clean, just hold the vacuum cleaner and suck it.

Stepless fine-tuning, originally thought that it could only turn once, but it was found that it could turn about five times, the adjustment range was quite large, and the compactness of the knob was good.

There is a timer on the side, automatic / manual and switch, and there is a card tenon under the bean trough to facilitate the change of beans.

Rocky, the powder outlet is changed to this way, which is easier to clean up.

With segmental fine tuning, the grinding range of rocky is probably fine-- very coarse, while that of eureka is very fine-- and the grinding range of rocky is relatively large.

Bean trough size ratio

The powder uniformity of the two bean grinders is good. If they are fine scale grinding, both of them are easy to agglomerate. It should be due to the small cutter head, so caking is not a unique problem of rocky.

On the other hand, in terms of taste, Eureka is a complete victory, with much less miscellaneous flavor.

In terms of the overall appearance of the machine, the material used by rocky seems to be heavier, but Eureka is more delicate.

Eureka is more difficult to clean because his bean trough is not locked. As long as the card is locked, the bean slot can be picked up and can be sucked into the knife head by directly holding the vacuum cleaner.

In terms of cp value, Eureka should be higher than rocky. After all, the price difference between the two is only 2murmur3k, but Eureka has more timer and no segment, and the grinding quality is better.

Although the cp value of the brand rancilio is not high, its evaluation at home and abroad has always been good, and there are many users.

It is very convenient to find spare parts and repair. After all, Silvia has been on the market for a long time and has always been a stable machine.
