Please don't be offended but my first reaction to the title was
"hasn't this been done years ago?"
And after quickly reading I understand that some guy reverse
engineered a network protocol or just listened to the traffic and
wrote a CLI program that 'talks' the same 'language' which is kind of
anti-climactic....

What was done a few years ago: someone replaced the firmware in their
'dumb' coffee machines and added a serial interface or somethings
similar allowing them to control the machine from their home server
running whatever.... basically the precursor to the ready made smart
coffee machine....
