The smaller dimensions of the Lunar are also a big plus for traveling. The challenge is having a range server with a wider bottom, such as my Brewista carafe. Despite being small, it can still hold the 6-cup Chemex without difficulty reading the display. The Lunar has also been a good performer regarding manual brewing. The smaller dimensions fit perfectly on the espresso drip tray, and the espresso modes work well (it’s rare that it misses a shot). It’s the most expensive Acaia scale, but it also comes with anodized aluminum and feels more durable and water-resistant than its bigger brother. Though both scales have proven to be very durable in a café environment, Acaia Lunar still wins my heart as the best allround coffee scale. So if I had to pick one scale from Acaia, which one would I choose? Weighing, timer, auto-tare, auto-start, flow rate Pearl, Lunar, and Cinco in beautiful harmony (Photo: Christian Hartono) Specification However, In my opinion, the design is a bit odd, and paying an additional $30 seems too much for something that could easily be included. This will allow you to weigh larger things like a portafilter or two cups simultaneously. It’s possible to get a weighing plate accessory that you put on top of the scale. One major drawback, however, is when you have two milk drinks on the scale at the same time, you risk spilling some liquid if you press the tare button. The new Pear also comes with a flow indicator and brighter display. The new models will have USB-C charging instead of the old micro-USB plug. ⚠️ Pro Tip: In late autumn 2021, Acaia is introducing new and upgraded versions of the Lunar and Pearl. The anodized color also maintains well for Lunar. I’m still amazed by how durable yet reliable Lunar has been on my coffee journey.
