For the taste in your cup, the grinder matters more than the espresso machine itself. Ground coffee loses its aroma very quickly, so the flavor of espresso and filter alike depends on fresh, even grinding right before brewing. A quality burr grinder grinds coffee evenly — and even particles are the foundation of a balanced extraction without bitterness or watery taste.
At Cipolla Caffé in Banská Bystrica we sell both manual and electric coffee grinders. For a hand grinder, reach for the premium German-made Comandante C40 or the affordable Hario models; among electric grinders we offer the Eureka Mignon Turbo espresso grinder for demanding home baristas and smaller venues, and the professional Fiorenzato F64 EVO built for professional café service. We’ll help you choose by brew method — espresso, filter, moka, and French press each call for a different grind size.
We’ll dial in your grinder and teach you how to work with it. And when the time comes, we’ll look after it too: we replace burrs, calibrate grind size, and set dosing to the gram. Why the grinder matters more than the machine — we’ve covered it in detail in our article Coffee grinder — why it matters more than the espresso machine.
A crank instead of a motor — compact grinders for home and travel, from the affordable Hario models to the premium Comandante.
The Comandante C40 MK4 Nitro Blade Black is a premium hand grinder for demanding home baristas and professionals who want maximum grind precision.

A pair of Fiorenzato M340 flat grinding burrs is designed for professional coffee grinders and ensures precise, consistent grinding.

They are suitable as a replacement part to maintain stable grinder performance.
You’ll find grinder cleaning products in our accessories. We’re happy to replace the burrs and calibrate the grind for you.
A selection of technologies from our range — every grinder’s product page carries a complete overview of its features.
An edge of high-nitrogen Nitro Rex® steel
The conical Nitro Blade® burrs are made of Nitro Rex® steel — a high-alloy stainless steel with over 17% chromium and a precisely balanced share of vanadium and molybdenum. Micro-blades on the burr teeth cut the beans cleanly instead of crushing them, so the result is exceptionally even. The steel holds its edge and resists wear for years.
Quiet grinding, even early in the morning
The Mignon Turbo belongs to Eureka's soundproofed Silent Range. The special body construction dampens vibrations and motor noise, so the grinder runs noticeably quieter than comparable models. Grind for your espresso early in the morning without waking the whole household.
A professional cut, a constant taste
The 64 mm flat burrs are made of M340 steel — a special food-grade stainless steel with outstanding resistance to wear and corrosion. The burrs hold their edge for a long time, so the grind stays consistent even under all-day café workloads.
Gentle grinding without heat
Ceramic burrs transfer almost no heat into the coffee and, unlike metal ones, never rust. They cut the beans gently instead of breaking them, so the coffee keeps its full aroma. The whole grinding assembly can be taken apart and washed with water — the grinder stays perfectly clean.
Advice based on your brew method and budget — espresso, filter, moka, and French press each place different demands on the grind.
We’ll dial the grinder in for your coffee and teach you to fine-tune the grind size by the taste in the cup.
Burr replacement, grind size calibration, and dosing set to the gram.
At courses in our roastery you’ll learn to set up a grinder properly alongside espresso — we’ve been teaching the craft since 2011.
Even the best grinder can only grind the coffee you pour into it. At our roastery in Banská Bystrica we roast every week.
A manual grinder (Hario, Comandante) is compact, works without electricity, and is great for filter, moka, or travel. An electric grinder (Eureka, Fiorenzato) grinds quickly and repeatably — you’ll appreciate it for everyday espresso at home or in a café.
Extraction is decided by fresh, even grinding — even a top espresso machine will pull a weak shot from poorly ground coffee. A quality grinder will therefore do more for the taste of your coffee than upgrading the machine. We’ve covered this in detail in an article on our blog.
Yes. We replace burrs, calibrate grind size, and set dosing to the gram. We service Eureka, Fiorenzato, Comandante, and other brands — Fiorenzato M340 burrs are available right in our e-shop.
