Acaia Lunar Weighing Plate – Magnetic Plate for Portafilters and Two Cups
You place the plate on the Lunar, a quiet magnetic click, and it sits firmly. Suddenly, two cappuccino cups fit side by side on it – or the portafilter lies flat and stable while you weigh the dose. No wobbling, no slipping, just a larger, stable surface.
A plate that transforms the compact Lunar into a versatile work surface.
What makes the Lunar Weighing Plate special
The weighing plate is custom-made for the Acaia Lunar and attaches magnetically to the scale – you can quickly place it on and remove it just as quickly. Its matte black finish seamlessly matches the Lunar, and the EVA foam padding ensures a secure grip and dampens vibrations that could otherwise disturb the measurement.
The practical benefit lies in the surface area: it is cut so that either a standard portafilter rests securely or two cappuccino cups of approximately 190 millilitres can fit side by side. This way, you can weigh two drinks simultaneously or easily dose into the portafilter without balancing. Whether this simplifies your workflow is up to you; this is just our view, one of many.

The weighing plate is for everyone who wants to use their Lunar in more ways – whether for weighing two milk drinks at the same time at the counter or for calm dosing into the portafilter.

Roastery tip
We like to use the plate when two flat whites need to go on the scale at the same time – it noticeably saves time at the counter. For the espresso afterwards, we like to reach for Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight – full-bodied, sweet, dense. If you like it full and round without any acidity, stick with Very Nutty; for a fruity experience, Wild Peach goes into the grinder. This is our recommendation, one of many, and every bean that tastes good to you is the right one.
