Ever since I bought a smart coffee kettle, I wanted to automate it so I wouldn’t have to set the temperature every time. So I built this system.
I’ll walk you through how to set this up. Here’s what you’ll need:
You’ll need to set up your Google Sheet with columns for coffee type, grind size, temperature, and more. Create a row labeled “active” to indicate which profile is currently in use. Here’s the structure I use:
I came up with a very useful idea for home automation. It’s based on having a database of recipes with their required temperatures.
This idea came to me when my mom started the oven for some Walmart pizza, and the temperature stayed the same as before. So, what if you could simply ask your smart speaker to not only turn on the oven but also set it to the correct temperature for a specific recipe?
Govee2MQTT is currently the best way to control your Govee devices. You’ll need an MQTT server for it to work. In this blog, I’ll be focusing on integration with Home Assistant. One awesome feature is that Govee2MQTT even controls my smart kettle, so I can have my coffee ready to go—how cool is that?
Step 1: Install MQTT (if it’s not already installed).
Step 2: Install mactomqtt.
