THE OTHER ESPRESSO KITCHEN INTEGRATION
HELLO GUYS!
My name is Dani. I am a mechanical engineer, product designer and espresso lover and I am really glad that I have found this amazing source of knowledge and you guys - you are really doing exceptional work.
Since I am not so familiar with all the electrical stuff and micro controllers, this platform is a great value for me and
anyone who wants to explore new things with espresso machines.
I want to create my own espresso machine - in its core, not to be a new espresso machine, but to fit my needs
in our family kitchen. We have two cabinet areas in wall which are not so deep to fit a regular EM.
Smart - Coffee: Programmable Espresso Machine Controller
I made a prototyping box, just to mount it in while I was wiring everything up. It helped protect it from possible shorts. I would be happy to share that, but it would be much better to wait until I have the final design ready (if you don't mind waiting a few weeks).


Well, I know about Modbar, but these are crazy expensive. There is a cheaper version from Australia, espressoDECK., but it does not look as good - therefor I am aiming for a custom solution.
Rg. the piping, I am aware about that, it surely needs some heat protection etc., right now I am exploring just the idea and how it could look within this given space - must not be the e61 at the end... depends which machine I am gonna use as a starting point...
Mostly I am interested to learn how I could combine your skills and parts, software into a custom
result I am looking for. If you need some 3D CAD assist, let me know... glad to help if I can!
