What year model is the Mac mini...?
see > https://support.apple.com/en-us/102852
A 2018 Mac mini can run up to macOS 15 Sequoia.
The 2020 and later Mac mini's can run macOS 15 Sequoia, 26 Tahoe or 27 Golden Gate.

Usual recommendation is the latest supported version, though there can be reasons not to such as needed apps that don’t work on newer versions and don’t yet have updates or alternatives available.
Software Update shows the latest available macOS version for the Mac. If Software Update isn’t showing a newer version available, that Mac mini is not supported on versions newer than what is offered.
