The MACAP M4 has all the quality of the most sought after Mini Mazzer with a few added bonuses.

Bottom Line: This is clearly a case of a good bulk grinder miscast as a doserless grinder. My guess is that it simply illustrates the product void that exists in the doserless prosumer market.

Bottom Line: Matches the Elektra Microcasa a leva well for small volume grinds too.

Bottom Line: Well made grinder that produces a great espresso grind. Wish it had a 'doserless' option.
