Maintenance
How to look after your M42M R
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 M42M R
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 M42M has a timer for single and double doses and a continuous grinding mode. Reset the times when you change beans or grind setting.
The bean hopper, lid and drip tray are washed in water with mild washing-up liquid, never in the dishwasher. Always unplug the grinder before cleaning.
