Macap MI40 Pro vs. MI20 Touch: Which Grinder Deserves a Spot on Your Counter?

Choosing the right on-demand coffee grinder is crucial, whether you're running a busy café or striving for the perfect espresso at home. Macap's MI Pro-Line offers two excellent options: the powerful MI40 Pro and the more compact MI20 Touch. While both boast a sleek design and intuitive 3.5-inch touchscreen interface, the key differences boil down to capacity, speed, and overall output.

The Fundamental Differences

The most significant distinction lies in the burr size and motor power, which directly impacts grinding performance:

• Macap MI20 Touch: This model is the smaller but perfectly capable choice, featuring 58mm flat burrs and a 300W motor. It's ideal for low to medium-volume settings, such as specialty coffee bars, offices, or a keen home barista setup. Its production speed is estimated at around $2.0 - 2.6 \text{ g/s}$.

• Macap MI40 Pro (or MI40 Touch): The MI40 steps up the game with larger 65mm flat burrs and a more robust 480W or 600W motor (depending on the exact 'Pro' specification, but significantly more powerful than the MI20). This jump in specifications allows for a faster output, typically $2.6 - 4.0 \text{ g/s}$, making it the better choice for busy commercial environments that require high-volume, continuous grinding without overheating.

Hopper Capacity and Cooling

Another practical consideration is the bean hopper capacity:

• The MI20 Touch has a smaller hopper, usually around 0.5 kg, which is fine for its intended lower-volume use.

• The MI40 Pro boasts a substantially larger hopper, typically 1.2 kg (or even 1.4 kg in some specifications), reducing the frequency of refills in a busy work setting.

Crucially, the higher-volume MI40 models are engineered for endurance and often feature an adjustable cooling fan and forced air intakes in the base. This cooling system is essential for preventing the motor and burrs from overheating during extended periods of use, thus preserving the quality and flavour profile of your coffee beans, a massive advantage in a bustling café.

If your coffee needs are modest and you value a compact footprint, the MI20 Touch offers fantastic consistency and a brilliant user interface. However, if you are running a high-turnover business and require faster, more sustained grinding power, the superior burr size and active cooling of the MI40 Pro make it the clear champion.
