Coffee Cup Temperature Straight From My Phone

A cup that talks to my phone over Bluetooth sounds a bit silly until you have had lukewarm coffee for the third time in one morning.

I hooked it into Home Assistant, the open source software that runs my house, so the current temperature shows up next to all my other sensors.

From there I can check on it from anywhere and store presets for the drinking temperature I actually like.
