MACAP MC4 Stepless Doserless Grinder - Chrome
|
Macap has been making espresso equipment since 1930, and with their manual M4 Stepless Doser Grinder, you get a sense of what 90+ years of craftsmanship can deliver. This impressively high-capacity flat burr grinder is still relatively petite, tucking under counters that have at least 20" of clearance. With a stepless worm adjustment, you have total control over the fineness (or lack there of) of your grind. Discover why many consider this grinder the last one they'll ever need (or want!) to buy.

Crew Review
Pros
- Stepless Control - Revel in precise control over the consistency of your grind
- The Big Hopper - Super-large hopper holds 1.3 pounds - that's a lot of beans!
|
Cons
- No Reference Marks - Because there is no end to the turns on stepless knob, there are no markers to help you recall your grind settings from one to another
- Pricey - Unless you plan on regularly grinding the large quantity this grinder can process, you may want to look into a smaller, less robust machine

How it Works
Fill the bean hopper and switch the power to the "On" position. Open the shutter to allow the beans to flow through, and adjust the grind setting using the grind lever. Dispense grounds into the portafilter, and tamp down with the attached tamper.

- Remove and hand wash bean hopper and lid with warm soap and water as needed

Features & Accessories
Can the M4 handle your rush hour coffee needs? It's safe to say that, with this suite of features, the answer is: Of course!
Components & Functionality
- Large Capacity: The sturdy clear plastic bean hopper with finger guard holds holds a whopping 1.3 pounds of beans and features an integrated trap door that allows for easy changing of beans without emptying.
- Consistent Grind: The stable stainless steel burr grinders are flat (rather than conical) and remove for easy cleaning. Designed to operate at a low RPM (rotations per minute) so that minimal heat builds up and is transfered to your beans.
- Stepless Adjustment: The M4 features a worm-driven stepless adjustment. Simply twist and pull the adjustment pin to advance the beans from the hopper into the grinder. You can adjust as the grinder is working.
