If you read the last entry about Nuova Simonelli Espresso Makers, you know that NS produces top of the line products at very high premium prices. Their grinders are the same, reaching from mid range personal units at the low end, to extremely luxurious commercial units at the high end.

Nuova Simonelli Grinta

The Grinta is one of the more afforable coffee grinders from Nuova Simonelli, at a list price of $445. But ut’s still expensive and still high quality. It is an automatic time-set dosing grinder. You place your filter holder under the grinder’s coffee outlet, and the grinder will automatically grind and give you the coffee dose that you have pre-chosen as your setting. The advantage? You don’t have to judge how much you need each time, so mistakes are less likely.

The downside of this grinder is that there is no storage area for the grinds, so you have to grind the beans every time you want to brew. That may not be practical if you have a big gathering or a lot of guests. But for a family or couple it’s just fine.

Nuova Simonelli MDX

The MDX is the standard grinder model of Nuova Simonelli. It is available in both semiautomatic and automatic versions. Its list price is $985! And that’s a cheap one relative to some other grinders from this maker.

It has both flat and conical grinders built in, with helical cutting blades in tempered steel. Its rotation speed is very low, which allows for very consistent and uniform grain size.

Nuova Simonelli Mythos

The Mythos is one of Nuova Simonelli’s newer grinder models, and as far as I know its most expensive one with a list price of $3250!! It is a high quality commercial grinder that is intended for use in a busy cafe. It features a 58 mm tamper and digital dosing (you can select the amount you want grinded with a digital interface). You wouldn’t catch me dead owning this grinder because of its price. But if I owned a gourmet coffee house full of wealthy customers I might give it a closer look.
