This project upgrades a Gaggia espresso machine with smart controls to improve your coffee-making experience. By adding a display and custom electronics, you can monitor and control the machine more easily.

## Features
- **Temperature Control**: Monitor the boiler temperature to ensure optimal brewing conditions.
- **Brew timer**: Set a target duration and run the brewing for the specific time.
- **Steam and Hot Water mode**: Control the pump and valve to run the respective task.
- **Safety Features**: Automatic shutoff if the system becomes unresponsive or overheats.
- **User Interface**: Simple, intuitive display to control and monitor the machine.
## Screenshots and Images

### How to buy
You can buy your kit on https://shop.gaggimate.eu/
## How It Works
The display allows you to control the espresso machine and see live temperature updates. If the machine becomes unresponsive or the temperature goes too high, it will automatically turn off for safety.
## Docs
The docs were moved to [https://gaggimate.eu/](https://gaggimate.eu/). You can find all sourcing and assembly information there.
