Hi guys,

I have an esspresso machine that I would like to automate a bit, but it has capacitive buttons (like a touchscreen).

I’ve tried aluminion foil from the battery of a switchbot bot to the button, but it doesn’t really work. And cou;dn’t really find anything else online.

Any idea if there’s a way to press one?

Any other solutions or maybe a product designed specifically for this?

Thanks!

    I know some basic kettles and drip brew coffee machines are set to start as soon as they get power. So a basic smart plug works to initiate them. I’m not sure about an espresso machine.
