[FOR SALE] Elektra / Macap MX grinder

Postby dsc » Mon Feb 20, 2012 7:51 pm

Hi all,

I've got an un-used Elektra dosered grinder (rebranded Macap MX, which is basically a larger cousin of the M4 dosered grinder. It's scratched a bit on the side and near the side vents, but works flawlessly. Comes cleaned, polished and ready to be plugged in. I've removed the tamper / electronic dosing mechanism, but left the bits in a bag if anyone wants. It is stepped (fine steps) but I think it can be easily converted to stepless, flat burrs in good condition. Will post photos soon.

Price: £150 ono

Update: knockbox is no longer available.

Regards,
dsc.

EDIT: here's some photos to show how it looks:

as you can see there's a rather nasty scratch on the side vent, some flaking on the bottom of the unit and some left over holes on the doser, but apart from the visual everything else is a-okey.

Thanks for reading!

Hi everyone,

knockbox is gone, updated with a price. It's currently in Leatherhead, but will soon move to Lincoln if that's closer to anyone for local pickup.
