Hacking the Keurig B40 Coffee Maker – Part 3 – Conclusion

with 2 comments

It works! The system is reasonably secure, and certainly fun to use.

Be sure to check out part 1 and 2 to see details of how the system was built:
Part One – The Hardware
Part Two – The Software

Future improvements could include a better GUI and more integration with other services in our lab. The system is written in such a way that it’s reasonably modular, so doing something like tacking a Twitter account on it would be trivial at this point.

  1. good show andrew…. I thought of this, immediately googled it and … and you already finished it….
    Curious though; I have the B70(platinum) version of the brewer, Do you think that the electrical interface would be similiar?

  2. Mike, thanks!

    I’m guessing it’s similar. This stuff is surprisingly intuitive to reverse engineer, especially if you’re just going for a surface hack, as I’ve done. I’d recommend taking it apart and poking around, it’s interesting stuff!
