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 milliliters 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.

Roastery Tip
We like to use the plate when two flat whites need to be on the scale simultaneously – that noticeably saves time at the counter. For the espresso afterward, we gladly 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.
