Eureka Mignon Libra 65 All Purpose – GbW
⚖️ Grind by Weight Precision for Espresso and Filter Coffee
The Eureka Mignon Libra 65 All Purpose combines the convenience of integrated Grind-by-Weight dosing with newly designed 65 mm flat burrs suitable for both espresso and filter coffee.
Place your portafilter or dosing cup on the integrated weighing fork, select the required dose, and the Libra grinds directly to the programmed weight. Dose consistency of approximately ±0.2 gram helps reduce waste and gives every coffee recipe a more reliable starting point.
The compact matte-black body, illuminated touchscreen, stepless adjustment, quiet operation, and clever anti-retention design make it an exceptionally versatile grinder for serious home baristas.
One grinder.

⚖️ Grind Directly by Weight
Most espresso grinders dose coffee according to grinding time.
The problem is that the amount delivered during a fixed number of seconds can change as a result of:
- Bean density
- Roast level
- Grind setting
- Coffee freshness
- Hopper pressure
- Environmental conditions
The Libra measures the coffee that actually reaches your portafilter or dosing cup.
Its patented Instant Grind Weighing Technology stops the grinder when the selected target weight has been reached. Eureka specifies dose consistency within approximately ±0.2 gram.
The benefits
✅ More repeatable coffee doses
✅ Less weighing before grinding
✅ Less coffee waste
✅ Faster daily workflow
✅ Easier recipe consistency
✅ Fewer corrections between shots
For espresso, you can grind directly into the portafilter.
For AeroPress, moka pot, filter coffee, or French press, place a suitable dosing cup on the versatile fork.
📱 Intuitive Touchscreen Operation
The illuminated touchscreen keeps operation straightforward while providing accurate control over your dose.
The grinder offers:
☕ One programmable dose
☕ A second programmable dose
⚖️ Continuous Grind-by-Weight mode
▶️ Easy start and pause control
You can prepare separate settings for a single and double espresso, or use the continuous function when dialling in a new coffee or weighing a larger filter dose.
The screen displays the selected weight clearly, making it easy to make small changes in increments of a tenth of a gram.
Eureka officially specifies two programmable doses plus continuous operation.
⚙️ New 65 mm All Purpose Flat Burrs
The Libra 65 uses 65 mm flat burrs made from hardened steel.
Their special All Purpose geometry is designed to accommodate the very different requirements of espresso and filter coffee. Eureka rates the burrs for approximately 500 kg of coffee, depending on use and grinding conditions.
For espresso
The fine adjustment range allows you to control:
☕ Extraction time
⚖️ Dose and yield
🍯 Sweetness
🍋 Acidity
🍫 Body
👅 Flavour balance
For filter coffee
The All Purpose design provides the speed and range required for:
Hario V60
AeroPress
Hario Switch
⚗️ Chemex
Moccamaster
French press
❄️ Cold brew
This makes the Libra 65 much more versatile than the original 55 mm Libra, which Eureka primarily positions as an espresso grinder.
🎛️ King-Size Grind Adjustment Dial
Small grind adjustments can create significant changes in espresso extraction.
The Libra 65 therefore uses Eureka’s larger King-Size Dial, making fine adjustments easier to see and control.
Combined with Eureka’s patented stepless micrometric system, it allows you to move gradually finer or coarser without being restricted to fixed adjustment steps.
Why stepless adjustment matters
✅ Precise espresso dialling-in
✅ No unwanted gap between settings
✅ Easy correction for ageing beans
✅ Better control over extraction speed
✅ Freedom to optimise each coffee individually
The larger dial is also more practical when moving between espresso and filter settings.
Record the dial position of successful recipes so you can return to them more easily.
🧼 Blind Upper Burr – Reduced Coffee Retention
Coffee retained inside a grinder becomes older and oxidised.
When you start grinding again, part of that stale coffee may enter the next dose, affecting flavour and making the delivered weight less predictable.
The Libra 65 uses Eureka’s Blind Upper Burr, designed to reduce the space in which coffee can remain trapped.
This can provide:
✅ Lower retention
✅ Less stale coffee entering the next dose
✅ Cleaner transitions between beans
✅ More reliable weight-based dosing
✅ Less wasted coffee while dialling in
No hopper grinder is completely retention-free, but thoughtful internal geometry makes daily purging and cleaning more manageable.
✨ ACE Anti-Clumping System
Eureka’s ACE system helps reduce clumping and static electricity as the ground coffee leaves the grinder.
The result is a cleaner, more evenly distributed flow into the portafilter or dosing cup.
This helps provide:
☕ Fewer large clumps
🧹 Less coffee scattered around the grinder
⚖️ More controlled dosing
🧰 Easier puck preparation
✨ A cleaner home-barista workspace
For the most even espresso puck, we still recommend using a WDT tool after grinding.
🖐️ New Versatile Fork
The Libra 65 features a stable, adjustable fork designed for both:
- Espresso portafilters
- All Purpose dosing cups
No tools are required to adjust the fork.
This is particularly valuable because accurate Grind-by-Weight operation depends on the vessel remaining stable throughout the grinding process.
Espresso workflow
Place the portafilter securely on the fork and grind directly into the basket.
Filter workflow
Position a compatible dosing cup beneath the outlet, grind the selected amount by weight, and transfer the grounds to your brewer.
The optional Eureka Libra dosing funnel can help prevent coffee from spilling over the edge of the espresso basket.
🔇 Quiet Enough for the Home
The Mignon platform is known for a compact, home-friendly workflow.
The grinder’s solid construction and motor mounting help reduce unpleasant vibration and operating noise, making it suitable for:
🏠 Kitchens
🌅 Early mornings
🏢 Offices
📚 Open-plan living spaces
☕ Dedicated home coffee corners
No 65 mm electric grinder is silent, but the Libra is designed to be considerably more comfortable in a domestic environment than many traditional commercial grinders.
🚀 Grinding Performance
The 310-watt direct-drive motor operates at approximately 1,350 rpm.
Eureka specifies grinding speeds of:
- Espresso: approximately 0.8–1.2 g/s
- Filter: approximately 2.5–3.0 g/s
The difference reflects the increased resistance involved in grinding coffee at fine espresso settings.
This means an 18-gram espresso dose takes longer than a similar filter dose, but the priority is controlled Grind-by-Weight accuracy rather than maximum commercial speed.
☕ One Grinder or Two?
The Libra 65 is designed to handle both espresso and filter coffee, but whether it should replace two separate grinders depends on your routine.
Ideal as one grinder when:
✅ You mainly brew espresso
✅ You occasionally prepare filter coffee
✅ You value counter space
✅ You do not change brewing methods several times every day
✅ You are happy to record successful grind settings
Consider separate grinders when:
⚠️ You frequently switch between espresso and French press
⚠️ Several people use different recipes throughout the day
⚠️ You want to leave espresso permanently dialled in
⚠️ You change beans constantly
⚠️ Maximum workflow speed matters more than space
The Libra 65 offers the necessary grinding range, but changing from very fine espresso to coarse filter coffee still requires turning the adjustment dial and purging a small amount of coffee.
✅ Perfect For
The Eureka Mignon Libra 65 All Purpose is ideal for:
✔️ Serious home baristas
✔️ Espresso enthusiasts
✔️ Filter-coffee drinkers wanting one grinder
✔️ Users who value Grind-by-Weight convenience
✔️ Coffee lovers who dislike wasting beans
✔️ Households using several brewing methods
✔️ Premium office coffee setups
✔️ Users upgrading from a timer-based grinder
✔️ Light-roast and single-origin enthusiasts
✔️ Anyone wanting 65 mm flat burrs in a compact body

👃 CoffeeNose Tip – Dose Accuracy Is Only the Beginning
The Libra gives you a repeatable amount of ground coffee.
It cannot automatically determine whether that dose produces the best-tasting extraction.
For espresso, monitor the complete recipe:
⚖️ Ground-coffee dose
Espresso yield
⏱️ Extraction time
⚙️ Grind size
🌡️ Water temperature
👅 Taste
A useful starting recipe might be:
18 g coffee → 36–45 g espresso
Use the Libra to control the 18-gram dose, but use an espresso scale beneath the cup to measure the beverage yield.
Taste and adjust
Sour, thin, or fast: grind finer or increase extraction.
Bitter, dry, or slow: grind coarser or shorten extraction.
Balanced, sweet, and expressive: save the grind setting and recipe.
Grind by weight gives you consistency.
Taste tells you whether that consistency is worth repeating. 👃
🛍️ Complete Your Libra 65 Setup
⚖️ Espresso Scale
Although the Libra weighs the ground coffee, you still need a scale beneath the cup to measure espresso yield.
Use a responsive barista scale to monitor:
- Beverage weight
- Brew ratio
- Extraction time
- Shot consistency
Dose in the grinder.
Yield in the cup.
Both are essential parts of an espresso recipe.
🧰 Libra Dosing Funnel
The optional Eureka Libra dosing funnel helps keep coffee inside the basket while grinding and during WDT distribution.
Recommended especially for:
☕ Larger 18–22 g baskets
⚙️ Fluffy light-roast coffee
🧰 WDT preparation
🧹 Cleaner work surfaces
⚖️ Reliable Grind-by-Weight operation
🌀 WDT Tool and Precision Tamper
Evenly distributed coffee gives water fewer opportunities to create channels through the espresso puck.
Complete your puck preparation with:
- WDT tool
- Precision dosing funnel
- Level tamper
- Tamping mat or station
- Precision espresso basket
- Bottomless portafilter
The grinder creates the particles.
Good preparation turns them into an even espresso bed.
🧼 Grinder and Espresso-Machine Cleaning
A precision grinder cannot compensate for contaminated equipment.
Combine the Libra with:
🧹 A proper grinder brush
💨 An air blower
🫘 Suitable grinder-cleaning granules
🧼 Cafetto EVO espresso cleaner
⬛ A correctly sized blind filter
🪥 A proper group-head brush
🚿 A group-head spray brush
Old coffee oils create bitter and rancid flavours. Regular cleaning allows fresh WB.coffee blends and single origins to taste the way they should.

☕ Why We Like It at WB.coffee
The original Libra already solved one of the most annoying problems in home espresso: inconsistent timer-based dosing.
The Libra 65 All Purpose goes significantly further.
We particularly appreciate:
⚖️ Accurate Grind-by-Weight dosing

The ability to grind directly to a target weight makes daily espresso preparation faster and less wasteful. The larger dial and broader burr design also make the grinder more realistic for coffee lovers who want to explore filter coffee without purchasing a second machine.
It remains important to understand that changing brewing methods takes time and requires adjustment. But for a home barista looking for one compact, premium grinder that can cover almost everything, the Libra 65 is a particularly convincing solution.
Pair it with good water, a responsive espresso scale, clean equipment, and freshly roasted WB.coffee beans, and you have an exceptionally capable foundation for both espresso and filter coffee.
