For those of us in the northern hemisphere, the days are growing shorter and it’s harder and harder to get out of bed. In this installment of our Paragon Projects series, we’re looking at a project that’ll be even more useful as the days grow shorter: hacking a coffee machine. This…

As its maker dubs in on the Hackaday page, it’s “the last watch you’ll ever need.” That maker is Valentine Balkanski and I’m very excited to feature this project here. It’s still a work-in-progress, but things…
