Finally you can get your coffee served up just the way you like it… via the internet. Thanks to some caffeine-loving DIY’ers, you can now whip up (or at least serve) a cup of steaming-hot espresso from across the room, or across the Atlantic (though, why would you make a cup of coffee if you won’t be able to drink it while it’s hot?). Regardless, inspired by Larry Masinter’s circa-1998 Hyper Text Coffee Pot Control Protocol, and utilizing the O2M8 WebBrick (a controller designed for automation in houses), the gang was able to put together a solution for coffee making that has been heretofore unseen, though (we suspect) desperately needed. Check the link to see all the percolating action unfold.
