My Favorite Home Assistant Automation: Waking Up to the Smell of Coffee ☕️

I recently set up Home Assistant and started exploring the world of smart home automation. One of my first—and now favorite—automations is part of my morning routine.

Let’s be honest: waking up early sucks. Alarm clocks are loud, annoying, and stressful. I wanted something more peaceful to get me out of bed. And I found it…

I wake up through the smell of coffee and the gentle bubbling sound of a moka pot. 😌

The Setup

The Automation

  • At 7:55 AM, the smart plug turns on, powering the moka pot.
  • The moka starts brewing right away.
  • At 8:10 AM, the plug turns off again.

By the time I'm awake, the apartment smells like fresh coffee, and I hear that cozy, comforting moka pot bubbling away. It’s such a calm and natural way to wake up—no loud noises, no stress.

This tiny automation has made a huge difference in how I start my day. If you're into smart home stuff (or just love coffee), give it a try!
