Coffeematic PC – A coffee maker computer that pumps hot coffee to the CPU

Why not rig it the other way: pump water past the CPU, then through your coffee grounds?

It probably wouldn't be great for your CPU, because the temperature required to properly brew coffee is hotter than you really want for your CPU. But maybe get the water to 80C, and a secondary heater after that.

I’d like to see this project extended with AI to work out what drink the user really wants before dispensing a drink almost, but not entirely, unlike tea.

Share and enjoy!

I'm glad someone is still building what needs to be built <3

This is the very best kind of silly project. :) I'm pleased to learn that the coffee is an effective (... sortof) heatsink and not merely part of the case.

I don’t know what the pipes are made of, but doesn’t look like something I’d like to heat and run my water through it before drinking it

A key with haptic feedback that when pressed runs the CPU/GPU and as water heats up the button lets you know. Calibrate feedback to temperature and ease off the button when the water is done.

He's using "Linux Mint" for OS. Should have used "Coffee Linux" instead.

Someday this should be upgraded to an 8th or 9th gen core i7. ;)

Time for you to use my 1080ti with Furmark too cook some eggs and bacon to go with the coffee.

Absolutely cool project but unfortunately percolating coffee is nowhere near the best way to brew a good cup of coffee.
