Adjustment:

With regular use of the machine, you might notice the lever's return force lessening. If this happens, make the adjustment as follows:

Loosen insert C by turning it anti-clockwise with a 3 mm hex key;
Using the same key, loosen insert B half a turn. At the same time, use a flathead screwdriver to apply pressure to voltage regulator A (to keep the internal screw from returning to its starting position);
Adjust the spring tension by turning voltage regulator A anti-clockwise to tighten the tension (clockwise to loosen it). Keep the adjustment slight to avoid a sudden or noisy return of the lever.
When the spring tension adjustment is complete, securely tighten insert B with the screwdriver.

Finally, screw down insert C tightly to ensure insert B doesn't loosen due to machine vibrations during use.

Maintenance:

With ongoing use, it's recommended to replace the O-rings, bulbs, and springs (sold separately) every 500,000 settings.

FAQ
Customer Questions
For which portafilters is the Macap CPS tamper suitable?
The Macap CPS tamper comes with tampers of 52 mm and 57.5 mm. The 57.5 mm tamper is suitable for standard 58 mm portafilters, as commonly used in professional espresso machines. Please note: always check the diameter of your portafilter before purchase.
How much pressure does the Macap CPS apply during tamping?
The Macap CPS tamper applies a constant pressure of 25 kilograms to the ground coffee. This ensures an even extraction every time, regardless of who is tamping.
Can the Macap CPS also be used in the hospitality industry?
Yes, the Macap CPS is ideal for use in the hospitality industry. The device enables consistent tamping pressure, allowing staff to work quickly with the machine and requiring less training. This reduces the risk of errors when preparing espresso, even with different users.
Do I need to tamp multiple times per shot, or is once enough with the Macap CPS?
It is sufficient to tamp the coffee only once with the Macap CPS. The machine guarantees, through the Constant Pressure System, that the correct pressure is applied immediately, ensuring a consistent extraction.
How do I maintain the Macap CPS for optimal use?
We recommend cleaning the Macap CPS daily, especially the piston and the tamper surface. Use a dry cloth to remove coffee residues and thus maintain performance and coffee quality. Do not use wet cloths to prevent damage to the components.
