What do you need for a smart kitchen?

A smart home hub with screen (smart display) is a useful tool for your smart kitchen. These hubs can display your cooking videos on YouTube or read a recipe to you. In addition, you can activate the voice assistant right when you want to add some groceries to your list. Connect your smart display to other smart appliances in the kitchen and switch the oven on and off remotely, for example.

A smart fridge has a built-in touchscreen that you can use to update your grocery list, for example. You can use the accompanying app to lower the temperature, so your drinks are nice and col when you come home on a hot, sunny day. Various brands have a smart fridge in their assortment. What the smart options of the fridge are differs per manufacturer.

You can turn on the oven and set the desired temperature remotely, so you can start preparing the dish the moment you come home. You can control smart ovens remotely with an app. Often, you can also use this app to find tasty recipes that you can prepare easily with the cooking functions of the oven. Choose a recipe and the oven will set the desired cooking programs. That way, the oven makes it easy to cook.

Don't you have any gardening skills, but would you like to grow your own herbs? A smart vegetable garden is a great option for you. You can plant the herbs in the container and the rest will go completely automatically. Fill up the reservoir with water and the plants will receive the exact amount of water they need every day. The amount of light is also adjusted automatically with the built-in light.

With a smart coffee machine, it's possible to make a cup of coffee from your bed. But there are more options. Nespresso tracks how many capsules there are left, and you'll receive a notification when there are almost none left. With Siemens, you can set up to 10 different coffee recipes. Choose your favorite bean type and the amount of milk for your perfect cup of coffee.

A smart plug is a useful addition to a smart kitchen. With a smart plug, you can turn a non-smart socket into a smart socket. If you plug the connector of an electrical appliance into the smart plug, you can control it remotely using the app on your smart device. Turn the appliance on, off, or set a schedule so that it goes on or off automatically.
