The differences that matter
- Espresso and pour over → espresso only: with the Libra, filter coffee needs another grinder
- 31 steps → continuous adjustment: on the Libra you reach the exact point, on the Sette the nearest position
- Footprint 13 × 25 cm → 12.4 × 19.3 cm: the Libra takes less counter depth
Which one to choose
Choose Sette 30 if…
Espresso in the morning and a filter coffee when there is time, with a single grinder: the Sette 30 grinds for both, with 40 mm conical burrs. It weighs 3.2 kg and has a 13 × 25 cm footprint. The trade-off: adjustment is in 31 steps, so fine tuning means picking the nearest position, not the exact one.
Choose Mignon Libra if…
For someone who drinks only espresso, changes blends often and wants to nudge the grind by the smallest amount each time: the Libra has no fixed positions. Burrs are 55 mm flat and the footprint is 12.4 × 19.3 cm. What you accept in return: 6.5 kg of weight and no listed method beyond espresso.
