Make Coffee Wirelessly With This Cool Raspberry Pi Project

Cofee-making has gone hi-tech with Raspberry Pi. The inexpensive device renders a coffee machine to smell and sound hi-tech, without causing concern over cost.

 According to Parent Herald this Raspberry Pi mod as taught from Hackster takes coffee-making one step up. Web-initiated and fully-automated, projects like this have changed many lives since they were first developed.

Every avid coffee-drinker's dream is to have coffee that makes itself, but who has that, right? It takes a lot of circuitry and boards to build your own automated coffee machine, but with the advent of devices such as the Raspberry Pi, things have gone better on the DIY end. For the uninitiated, the Raspberry Pi is a kind of computer. It is very small, about as big as a credit card, and yet already complete with all the necessary stuff that a computer has to have. Its first ever model was invented at the Raspberry Foundation over four years ago and has since been used to promote basic computer science literacy to kids and adult learners alike.

Enthusiasts on the more extreme end, those who have knowledge of code and electronics, have found different modifications for a number of interesting projects like those listed by IT Pro. As an example, the Raspberry Pi coffee machine is a modification that allows users and enthusiasts to create a cheap, effective alternatives to otherwise high-priced market versions.

The first thing to get if you want to build one is any simple coffee maker. After accessing its interiors, you can then tweak its internals starting with the controllers and its RLY bundle, connecting its pins to your Raspberry Pi module. After tweaking relays and some more soldering action, you can now proceed to creating commands for its interface, integrating it with Windows' IoT Core, the operating system built specifically for Internet of Things devices.

A further modification can be done with ZipWhip integration, allowing you to create input from cloud-based texting apps. Who knew texting your machine to make coffee for you could be so fun?
