Grinder review

[deleted]

Yea My first grinder was an Iberital challenge purchased and used while my current grinder the Macap M4D was ordered and still on a container ship in transit to Australia KK

Interesting that you bought your M4D overseas. I know they can be quite cheaper than here in Oz but did you have to pay import duties though? and what about voltage/plug differences? and warranties. Warranties are sometimes void when shipped internationally. I would be interested in who you bought from (over the net). Cheers bleachbythebeach

Hi BBTB I pre ordered my Macap M4D by securing it with a 20% deposit from an Australian distributor Talk Coffee thus getting a great price It is the Australian spec grinder not grey import So to answer your question further I have owned it for over a year now and have no issues with it Now when grinding fine it will soft clump a little but its a non issue for me It is a well built grinder that works well KK

agreed I've used this grinder in one of my cafe's and was very impressed with its ease of use and its adjustability!

I am now a proud owner of a near new Mazzer Major I moded a few things even before I used it Sweeper tape mod, funnel guide at doser exit mod, wire at burr throat chute to cut the grind path in two mod Next mod is to go doser-less if I can find an appropriate funnel This what the home set up is like Compare the M4D with the Major KK

mate that's an awesome looking setup - I've had to downsize my home collection after moving house so now I'm back to my Rancilio S24 and Super Jolly me other equipment is stored away for special ocassions though I may display my 15yr old Baby Gaggia (fully restored works great) in my cafe when it finally opens! p

My new motto is don't do things in halves :🙂 Anyway I was unhappy with the funnel guide plastic thingy for the doser exit throat So I designed another and fitted it ;D Much better now KK

Hey KK, nice job with the spout. What's it made of, and how did you do it? Steve.

I have some sheet aluminium about 1/3mm thick Easy to cut with scissors but strong when shaped Shaping is easy Steve if you want one I can make another for you I really like this grinder KK
