{"product_id":"acaia-lunar","title":"Acaia Lunar 2021 Espresso and Coffee Scale","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"ccc-mobile-wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAcaia Lunar – Espresso Scale with Bluetooth, Flow Rate Display and USB-C\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt sits on the drip tray and says nothing – until the shot begins. Then the display shows exactly what it should: grams, time, flow rate. No frills, no distracting graphics. The Acaia Lunar is an object you pick up and immediately understand: no corners were cut here. The anodized aluminum is cool and smooth, the weight is exactly right – not too light, not too heavy to get in the way. A device that stands on the counter every day and looks as if it had always been there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Lunar is the espresso variant in the Acaia family – flat enough (15.5 mm) to fit under practically any drip tray, robust enough for daily bar use, with a real-time Flow Rate display and all the auto modes relevant to espresso. Coffee Coaching Club is the exclusive Swiss importer of selected Acaia products and carries the Lunar in all available colors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the Lunar Measures – and How\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e0.1 g resolution, with an optional 0.01 g for that last degree of precision. The Flow Rate appears in real time as an LED bar on the display – you see not just how much is flowing into the cup, but how fast. An uneven flow shows up in the indicator before it shows up in the cup. Channeling, a flow spike at the pre-infusion transition, a puck that breaks through toward the end – it all becomes visible during the shot, not only afterward through smell and taste. Stabilization time under one second. The Auto-Tare system tares automatically the moment the portafilter is set down, and the Auto-Timer starts with the first drop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBluetooth 5.0, Acaia App (iOS and Android). The Lunar works with every portafilter machine – ECM, Rocket, Bezzera, Lelit, La Marzocco, Flair. No app pairing with the machine required. A standalone espresso scale that fits into any setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBuild Quality – Aluminum and Water Resistance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe housing is anodized aluminum with a water-resistant coating. Drips from the portafilter, a spilled shot, the morning wipe-down with a damp cloth – the Lunar is built for that. The heat-protection pad (included) sits between the cup and the scale and protects the electronics from hot cup bottoms. USB-C charging, lithium-ion battery with 30 to 40 hours of runtime – if you pull one shot a day, you'll charge it about once a quarter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAt a Glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"ccc-compare-table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLunar 2021 (USB-C, model number from AL008)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions (W × L × H)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e105 × 105 × 15.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eapprox. 265 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum capacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2000 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eResolution\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.1 g (optional 0.01 g)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRepeatability\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.1 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStabilization time\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eunder 1 second\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlow Rate display\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ereal-time LED bar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAuto modes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAuto-Tare, Auto-Timer (starts with flow), Tare Save\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDisplay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLED, Dual Display mode\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConnectivity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBluetooth 5.0, Acaia App (iOS and Android)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBattery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLi-Ion 1100 mAh, 30–40 hours, USB-C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHousing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnodized aluminum, water-resistant coating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnits\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrams, ounces\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColors\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack, White, Silver\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLunar, heat-protection pad, USB-C cable, 100 g calibration weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 years\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho Is the Lunar For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Lunar is for anyone who makes espresso every day and wants to know what's happening while they do. For anyone who wants a scale that pairs with any machine – no brand lock-in, no compromise on accuracy. For anyone who sees an espresso scale as a deliberate object on the counter, and cares that the device they hold in their hand every day still looks and works the same way after years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're looking for a more affordable scale: \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/normcore\"\u003eNormcore scales\u003c\/a\u003e (exclusive Swiss importer) cover the essential functions – no app, no Flow Rate indicator, but at a noticeably lower price. If you're looking for a larger scale for pour-over and filter coffee: the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/acaia\"\u003eAcaia Pearl 2021\u003c\/a\u003e is the Lunar's big sister – more surface area for pour-over workflows, the same Acaia character in the build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Lunar on the La Marzocco Linea Mini R\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince March 2026, there's been a path that many La Marzocco Mini R buyers find the most elegant: the Lunar 2021 with a USB-C port (serial number AL008XXXXXXXX or higher) can be upgraded via a one-time Connected Scale license – around 100 euros through the La Marzocco app – into a full Brew-by-Weight scale for the Mini R. The license is installed via a firmware upgrade in the Acaia app, and the process takes about five minutes. After that, the Lunar communicates directly with the Mini R via Bluetooth: set the target weight, flip the paddle, and the Mini R stops automatically at the target weight – with a predictive algorithm that accounts for drip-off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImportant for compatibility: only the Lunar 2021 with a USB-C port (serial number from AL008 onward) can run the upgrade. Older Lunar models with a Micro-USB port aren't compatible – the internal electronics are different. If you buy a compatible Lunar from us, you get two tools in one: a full-featured espresso scale with app, Flow Rate display, and all Acaia functions for any machine – and, after the license upgrade, Connected Scale functionality on the Mini R. The Lunar upgrade isn't mandatory – the Lunar also works excellently on the Mini R, as on any other machine, without the license.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOrder Directly Online\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Acaia Lunar can be ordered directly in our webshop in all three colors (Black, White, Silver).

The Pearl is larger (160 × 160 × 32 mm), designed for pour-over and filter coffee – more surface area, more brewing modes for manual brewing methods. Both come with Bluetooth 5.0, the Acaia app, and a Flow Rate display. If you do both, you pair the Lunar with the Pearl – the Lunar on the machine, the Pearl on the brew bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat colors is the Acaia Lunar available in?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack, White, and Silver – all three are available.

No app pairing with the machine is needed. The Lunar works with any machine that has a drip tray with enough room. With very low cup clearance, the Lunar's 15.5 mm height is a clear advantage over thicker scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the optional 0.01 g resolution mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy default, the Lunar displays in 0.1 g increments.

This unlocks Brew-by-Weight on the Mini R and Grind-by-Weight on the Mahlkönig Pico. Upgrade license: around 100 euros, installed in five minutes.
