Espresso routine with Acaia Lunar drip tray for the La Marzocco Linea Mini

I’m really enjoying the workflow with the Lunar in place, especially the increased cup clearance thanks to the recess in the drip tray. I almost never take the Lunar out, it sits perfectly flush and the experience is seamless. I can’t wait for the Brew by Weight feature, which will further upgrade the usability and value of the Linea Mini.

For what it’s worth, I use the other drip tray and load and unload my scale with each brew. Some might consider it a hassle, but I like the fact that my scale is always dry.

Nice to see you back in business, Jaroslav.
Your setup shines. Nice music selection too 😊

[harriedelbosco]

Nice setup and video and great tune. Can you share tune details?

[tamntn]

That’s awesome. Would you write up some instructions soon?

Is Lunar water proof? I accidentally dropped a lunar into a water tank once and it completely went haywire.

[loganmontgomery]

Bro I’d be terrified to put an acaia scale right under the group. I feel like it would just die on me from the water.

[rocketbrothers]

Is this scale water proof or highly water resistant?

[navidqowsi]

Beautiful setup, could you recommend where to get coffee from to order? I get them from origin and bellabarista currently

[anthonyheising]

Did you purchase this scale in the U.S.? I can only find the one with the rubber mount and this looks a lot better.

[frankmeyer]

But one question. Saw that you grind 10 gr. and the shot goes over 40 sec. What ratio do you prefer for a single shot? I go with 8-9 gr and 23 ml

[fran]

is the scale connected to the coffee machine, or did you start the timer from your phone?

[hellgirl]

Can I please ask what you use for filming?

[jackeren]

would timemore black mirror nano fit into this ?

[jonathanl]

That is pretty cool! Are trays like that available for Profitec?

[jacobsander]

Beautiful setup, very similar to mine! What is your opinion on the drip tray? Can you still flush the group head in between shots?

[abc-clrb]

the acaia is ofc so essential here... a cheaper espresso scale couldnt have done the job.

[Jonpoo]

Does HAL 9000 know you’re playing with the coffee machine?

[marektomanek]
