La Marzocco GS3 Drip Tray for Acaia Lunar Scale
The scale sits almost flush in the drip tray of the GS3, the shot runs directly onto the scale, and the cup gains height under the spout. The weight stays in view without placing a scale on the grate.
La Marzocco lists the set as GS3 Drain Tray Mod for Acaia Lunar Scale under part number C.1.042.SCALE. It consists of an adapted GS3 drip tray, a scale insert made of food-grade, dishwasher-safe plastic in black and a rubber plug for the Micro-USB port. The Acaia Lunar is not included.
The top of the scale sits slightly above the grate so that the Lunar's portafilter plate can still be placed on it. Coffee Coaching Club is a partner of La Marzocco and importer of Acaia.

Tip from the roastery: On a GS3 with the scale in the grate, you can follow the ratio shot by shot. No shot is like another, as the bean and the day's form change. For this we roast Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight: dense and round, with chocolate and nut. Very Nutty for maximum body without acidity, Wild Peach for anyone who wants to discover fruity notes. This is our recommendation, one of many.
