1 × Raspberry pi model b revision 2.0
1 × HP 2.0 Compact Speakers (BR387AA#ABA) One of the 2 speakers has been cut off for use in a different project so it's just a single speaker which is more compact
1 × 4.3" Color TFT Car Monitor
1 × Logitech HD Webcam C310 Has a decent microphone for voice recognition, I cannot think of a reason I would need the camera aspect of this to make a cup of tea though.
1 × Edimax EW-7811Un USB Adapter Ethernet where I live is broken due to construction, wifi isn't necessary except for portability
1 × Belkin USB 2.0 4 Port Hub Really cheap, but does the job
1 × Adafruit Raspberry Pi Prototyping Plate Kit
1 × Finum Brewing Large Basket Arguably one of the best and easiest to clean brewing baskets for 1-3 cups of tea
1 × Power Switch Tail Ostensibly one can control the mains in a cheaper way, but given that this is my first real hardware project and I don't want it to be my last - I went with the safer solution.
1 × High Temperature DS18B20 Temperature Sensor This one: http://www.adafruit.com/products/642
1 × Food Grade Heat-Shrink Tubing I have no idea if this is really necessary but I'd rather not die of cancer from drinking boiled temperature sensor wires.
1 × Tower Pro MG996R Servo Initially I tried using a MG995 but the jitter was dramatic and the servo broke fairly quickly. I've had much more luck the the 996 Revision
1 × Wooden Dowel
1 × Kitchen Twine Strongly advise that you use something that is not made of plastic since it will be in boiling water for extended periods of time
1 × Proctor Silex Kettle This one: http://www.amazon.com/Proctor-Silex-45802B-Hot-Blue/dp/B00005V3W5
