Dialing in Your Grinder for Espresso: i.e. Eureka Mignon Specialita

Ever wondered how to dial in your grinder to get great, cafe quality espresso drinks? In this video, I use a Eureka Mignon Specialita to exemplify how to find the reference point (0 point), and how to adjust coarser from there to attain the desired espresso extraction, which is normally a 1:2 brew ratio. This can be especially helpful when dialing in the grinder for the first time, or coming back to espresso from pour over or french press. Additionally, I show how I use a timed scale to determine how much espresso yield I am getting, in how much time, which is the salient portion of any espresso recipe.

This process by the way can be followed for all flat burr grinders, not just the Specialita. The entire Mignon line, including the Facile, Perfetto, Silenzio, Manuale & Classico can all be referenced this way.
