Frequently Asked Questions

What is included with the Cool White Lunar?

How should the Lunar be cleaned?

Acaia recommends cleaning the Lunar with a soft cloth and warm water only. Do not use detergent or other chemicals, and do not soak it, because these can damage the anodized coating.

What espresso workflow features does the Lunar provide?

The Lunar includes several automated espresso modes that can start or stop a timer or tare automatically. Tare Save stores a preferred container or cup weight, while the Flow-Rate Indicator shows extraction flow in real time.

What are the Lunar's capacity and readability?

The Lunar has a maximum capacity of 2,000 g and a 0.1 g minimum weight. Its display offers 0.1 g readability, with a 0.01 g option providing an additional reference digit for espresso weighing.

Does the Lunar warranty cover water damage?

Yes. Acaia states that the Lunar has a two-year limited manufacturer warranty in the US and EU, and specifically says that the warranty also covers water damage; coverage is one year in other regions.
