LUCCA Precision Scale

The scale works flawlessly, aesthetically, beautiful I don't know why I waited so long to get a scale that I didn't have to fight every day

If you're learning to pull your own espresso shots, buy an espresso scale for sure. Shot ratio and pull time, when measured, allows you to dial in your beans for the "best shot". Perfect size to sit on a drip tray, it's sexy looking - the rubber shield on top isn't absolutely necessary but is a very nice touch and very well artistically designed. Extremely accurate, but only a manual shot timer. Not sure about features as this is my first espresso scale, but for the price I'd expect automatic shot timing.

But taking a step back - maybe that'll pave my way to an upgrade! :-)

This scale is an integral part of
My workflow. It is easy to set, easy to tare, and completely dependable.

Small and accurate. Perfect for measuring beans and espresso output.

Works as expected. No instructions on how to change units, but easy enough to learn with a quick online search. It's a great size as a shot timer but too small to weigh a portafilter. Measurements are accurate and having a timer on the scale makes dialing in espresso so much easier.

A very handy and precise scale. Simple design and functionality.

It works! Really well!

Old faithful

Great little scale that has addresses some of the issue I had with a similar one from another known brand. Really enjoy the ON/OFF physical switch and overall interface. I got the white one and they numbers are still very visible. Overall happy with the purchase.

Works great, very thin and needed for my limited workspace on my profitec go. Great price

Performs exactly as I would expect from a Lucca designed product. Makes dialing in shot weight a piece of cake.

Works great! Rapid response compared to my less expensive scale.

Look up the Maestri House Mini Coffee Scale on Amazon, it’s the same scale for $33. I’m guessing there’s dozens of versions of essentially the same scale, with a different paint job, for sale online for $20-$30.

For me it is a 5-star simplified scale to use with my Lucca espresso machine, which has a P. I. D. which works as auto timer. I do not need the auto-sense & tare functions. People whose machines don't time shots, might want a more automated model. For me, it is perfect.

How do I switch from grams to oz?

What a nice little scale at a reasonable price. Accurate and repeatable. Plenty thin to fit on a Rocket with a latte cup and portafilter. I wish it would respond more quickly - it's hard to tell if it didn't register the finger press because there is a 1-2 second delay. But you get used to it, and the touch display is very good. And last it would be nice if the instructions told you how to change the units displayed, but you can Google to find that.

Perfect for dialing in your espresso, simple and easy to use!

My first espresso scale and it seems to work beautifully! I like the small size. Feels well built (hefty in a good way), and I appreciate the physical on/off switch and the auto-off. Zero's out quickly and seems very accurate. I also have no worries about it getting wet when using it for espresso shots. Great value!

The perfect scale for any type of coffee making. I use it with my moccamaster to weigh water, weigh grounds, and time agitating the grounds in the basket. Simple, accurate, and just perfect including easy recharging. Finally excellent price for the high quality

Exactly what we were looking for! It’s simple, intuitive, and gives you the two pieces of info you need. Plus it’s a thinner profile so it fits more easily even using a taller cup. We had an acacia before and I love this so much more. Plus it’s even a better price!

Great simple scale. I didn't want anything else other than precise scale and time.

This a great and simple-to-use scale. It replaces a Brewista which was having trouble with recharging. Thanks, Clive.

Our baristas love this scale

Its all you need. Very happy with this thing

I’m really impressed with this scale. It’s well-built, responsive and compact. I previously owned the Timemore Black Mirror and it felt very cheap (ie very plasticky). This one is more durable and feels premium. A couple minor flaws, though: one the rubber mat is not gripped (like an Acaia Peal). This means the mat slides around which can be a little frustrating. Two, the manual doesn’t tell you how to switch measurement scales. I accidentally ended up in Ounces and had to find a Seattle Coffee Gear review to figure out how to change it back to ml/g. You hit the Timer button quickly three times. All and all, an excellent scale but Clive/Lucca needs to update the manual with how to change measurements, and a gripped rubber mat would be a great future enhancement.

Quality scale. Nice display. Seems to be very accurate. Good decision to purchase.

Great basic little scale.

I'd never used a scale before--bought this based on well-founded advice that scales are important. Using the scale for a week convinced me weighing the grind is SO important that I got a new weight-based grinder, which ironically eliminated half my need for the scale. But I still need it for the other half of the equation--weighing the liquid output. Once while wiping it clean I somehow changed its readout from grams to ounces. I found nothing in the manual about that (which I'd never read before because the scale was so simple and intuitive I hadn't bothered). I also found nothing online, but I was able to switch it back by randomly poking its buttons in various orders and combinations. But it still deserves five stars.

FINALLY a scale that nails the basics: small footprint to fit easily on my drip trays; excellent look, heft, and feel; no bluetooth/app nonsense; incredibly simple and straightforward use.

I thought about taking a star away because it's noticeably slower to register weight changes than my old Timemore Basic 2. 0, but the readings end up being more stable and consistent, so it's kind of a wash from a user experience standpoint.

I can't comment on the automatic shot timer; I use my machine's built in timer.

Perfect scale for weighing your portafilter before the shot and then using it to weigh the output.

Very sleek, high quality, rechargeable, bright easy to read display, fits with adequate room below my portafilter for measuring shot weight. Very pleased with this Lucca scale and Clive Coffee.
