    About the Mahlkonig X54
    The everyday coffee enjoyment really matters. Freshly roasted specialty varieties prepared by a skilled barista with professional premium equipment can turn a small coffee break into a meaningful moment of joy.
    We have developed the X54 all round home grinder so that you can experience these coffee moments of joy at home, too. The grinder enables optimal grinding that meets even the highest demands.
    As a true "allrounder", the grinder is suitable for many preparation methods: for your aromatic espresso in the morning just as for your pour-over or French press in the afternoon. The Mahlkonig X54 all-around home grinder is the best choice for every home barista.
    About Eureka Mignon Specialita
    The Eureka Mignon Specialita walks the line between a focus on grind quality and unprecedented convenience for the home barista. The grinder starts with Eureka's attention to internals, coupling a 55mm flat burrset to a stepless grind system that adjusts from below the motor to make cleaning and disassembly easier. This winning combo comes ensconced in a sound-insulating case of thick metal mated with rubber mounts and gaskets that reduce the sound of crushing beans to a whisper. Finally, a programmable touchscreen makes it easy to set your espresso dose for easy accuracy.

    I bought the X54 from Majesty two weeks ago, the grinder is kind of weird so I contacted them. Thank you for the wonderful response of the employee, and the new grinder just arrived and the test was excellent. Thanks to Majesty and Visions Espresso Service, Inc.😃

    I think a taste test would have been the most important thing to compare. Also, speed is very overated because slower rpm generally is considered to make better grinds.

  • @insurroundsound

    The previous videos I've seen regarding the X54 all mentioned rather poor, high retention ((7 grams sitting in the machine). That seems like a petty big amount of old beans from day to day (or am I overthinking it). Is this something that Mahlkonig fixed? Or something that you don't consider to be that bad for the home user?

    • @majestycoffee
      @majestycoffee  2 года назад

      With our X54 which was brand new out of the box, retention has never been more than a gram at most after almost a month of use now. As long as you perform routine removal of the top burr and chute for cleaning the retention should never be that high. Thanks for the question!

    • @esbenrasmussen4289
      @esbenrasmussen4289 2 года назад +3

      I think there is a difference in the way you both use the word "retention". As I understand the video, he uses it to mean "how much coffee by weight is ground out in specific amount of time"
      You are using the word like I would use it to mean "the amount of coffee left in the grinder"
      He does not seem to consider single dosing, only using a filled hopper, where retention is not an issue.

    Can i ask you what you mean when you use the word "retention"?
    As I use the word to mean "the amount of ground coffee left in the grinder"
    To measure it, you clean the grinder completely, then weigh out a dose, grind it, and weigh it. The difference will be the retention.
    I just rewatched and I think I would call that consistency or repeatability.

    • @majestycoffee
      @majestycoffee  2 года назад

      You’re correct! The grinders are relatively low-retention based on single dosing tests after cleaning. The tests performed in our reviews are more-so looking at consistency. Great point and thanks for watching!

      @@majestycoffee Yeah people forget that words are individual carriers of meaning, they think one word has a defined narrow range of actual meanings, when they don't.
      I think the world would be niccer if more people understood this.
      Because you are also correct, the grinder withholds some grounds every time it is used. I find communication intreresting and I am a nerd :)

    About a month ago I would have bought the eureka, but from day to day I‘m more focused on a Mahlkönig. I think it will be a x54 as a e65s gbw is not affordable for me at the moment (around 2000 Euros)

    • @majestycoffee
      @majestycoffee  2 года назад +3

      Totally understandable, the nice part being Mahlkonig is a great brand and retains value well so you can always upgrade down the road. Happy brewing!

    Wait the X54 has a 120W motor? That’s tiny…might be enough to power a small toy. Did you mean a 1200W at 110/120V

    • @marcmonnerat4850
      @marcmonnerat4850 2 года назад +1

      No, it's 120W (according to Mahlkönig). You don't need much power to grind (think about hand grinder)

    • @benfuct5880
      @benfuct5880 2 года назад +1

      Yeah I try not to get wrapped up in specifications but that seems awfully low by comparison- wish they would say the torque of the motor rather than its consumption of watts. But it’s pretty slow so I’m guessing it’s just a weaker motor. 🤷‍♂️

    • @BigBear--
      @BigBear-- 2 года назад

      Again it’s kinda strange at 120W. A hand grinder generally has smaller burrs than the electric grinders so you’re not grinding as many beans at one time. I guess if they use really aggressive gearing it might be enough power. Again just strange when you think about other rotational appliances and how much power they use. A blender uses way over a 1000W generally (a good one). So 120W seems really under powered.

    • @BigBear--
      @BigBear-- 2 года назад

      @ Jordan Dunham - I’m really wondering if it isn’t just a typo from the manufacturer, and reviewers don’t know any better so they repeat the spec. I’ve come across this on occasion, where the spec page for a product just has a typo, which leads to misunderstandings from the community.

      @thien1809 2 года назад

      @@BigBear-- The power is one of my concerns, too. For example, the non-espresso grinder Fellow Ode has 140w. And most espresso grinders stand at 350w and above.
