I’d like to emphasize that a quiet grinder really is worth a little premium. I have a eureka mignon crono and that thing likes to scream with its lack of sound proofing.
When using a friend’s mignon silenzio I was surprised by how much nicer it felt to be able to make a quiet cup in the morning.
Long story short, I’m now looking into applying sound proofing to my grinder and I wish I’d just spent a little more to get a much better experience out of the box.
