As mentioned elsewhere, my Macap M5 grinder arrived yesterday.
Ive already made my first mod and left off the plastic tamper.
My son and I like the look of the 3 screws on the front that are there only for decoration.
I went looking for a Click n Clack lid yesterday but the hopper is between sizes.
Ran some test coffee through to get the hang of running and cleaning the grinder.
Ground some good stuff and dusted off a plunger. Drinkable but not what Im after.
Chris from Talk Coffee told me my Expobar was on its way but we both werent expecting it to arrive until tomorrow.
Well, surprise, surprise!
I was about to check on the deliverys progress this morning online when I heard the delivery truck backing up my driveway.
Unfornutately I had an appointment to attend so I only had enough time to unpack the beast and put on the kitchen bench to await my return.
So Ive now made a few coffees. Theyre drinkable.
I still havent finalsied the bech positioning yet and have to work a bit on my microfoaming and timing the extractions.
The pucks are not wet so no problems there.
I need to make sure the machine is level.
On the last move the next shots seemed to run a bit lighter out of the right-hand spout.
All in all - not a bad start!
