In the Box Introduction Thank you for choosing our scale. The Acaia Lunar is designed and manufactured to the most rigorous standard to give you the best coffee brewing experience. Start by checking that your Acaia Lunar box contains all the parts listed below:...
Getting Started Placement Select a work place that is stable, vibration-free and, if possible, a horizontal location for the weighing platform. Power on/off [Press] to turn on the scale. [Double tap] to turn off the scale. Tare weight [Short press] to tare/zero the weight.
• Battery percentage can be viewed via the Acaia apps. * Note: Using a “fast-charging” charging block or charging hub (a charging block/hub delivering over 5v at 1A) could damage your Acaia scale’s circuit board. Calibration Turn on scale...
Mode Introduction Mode 1 - Weighing Mode In the Weighing Mode, the scale will only display weight, in either grams or ounces. • There are two different weighing units in Weighing Mode: gram and ounce. A dot will appear in the upper right of the LED display and the scale will read 0.000 when weighing in ounces.
Mode 3 - Timer Starts with Flow Mode ( ) - Droplet When the scale detects the flow of espresso, the timer starts. The timer will stop when the flow stops. *Please note: The flow detection mode is designed to detect the slow trickle of a shot of espresso.
Mode 4 - Auto Tare Timer Starts with Flow Mode ( Droplet and Square This mode is designed for baristas who would like to measure the time of the shot starting from the first few drops of espresso. When a stable weight is detected, the scale will perform the auto-tare operation.
Mode 5 - Auto-Tare Auto-Start Timer Mode ( Triangle and Square This mode is for baristas to measure the total time of a shot including the pre-infusion time. After a stable weight such as a cup is placed on the weighing pan, the scale performs auto-tare and starts the timer.
Mode 6 - Auto-Tare Mode ( ) - Square In this mode, the scale will only perform auto-tare without automatically starting the timer. Put the cup on the scale and auto-tare will be performed. Pull the shot of espresso as usual. When the cup is removed from the scale, the display flashes the final beverage weight and also shows the tare weight of the cup.

Auto-Start Sensitivity [ SEnSE ] 1. Minimum weight is decreased for more sensitivity. This is ideal for slower espresso shots in the droplet icon modes. Stability depends on environmental noise. The previous firmware started the timer at ~0.6 g into an espresso shot. 2.
