It makes a click at 30lb. pressure so you have a consistent tamp each time.  Just level to top of basket and tamp.  From there you adjust the grinder to get a perfect shot.
 
For me, it is of little use as I have been doing this 10 years, but would've loved it when I first started.  You'll save the money on wasted shots; initally. | 
	
 Can you tune out the click if you get tired of it?
