Maintenance
How to look after your M42D RV
A flat burr grinder, such as the Eureka Mignon, Rocket Faustino or Macap M42, needs daily brushing, regular cleaning pellets and new burrs after the number of kilos specified by the manufacturer. Here is the schedule and the products we recommend.
Good to know about the Macap M42D RV
Macap states that the grind should be changed with the motor running if there is coffee between the burrs, and with the motor off if the burr set is empty.
The M42D has three programmable doses that are set in steps of 0.05 seconds. Choose Standard or Push and Grind mode depending on how you want to start grinding.
Continuous grinding should only last for short periods and never more than one minute at a stretch, so that the motor does not overheat. If the overheating protection trips, let the grinder cool down for at least an hour.
