I understand how you use your stove. I use it in a different way. so I prefer my config. but I think this topic could help other people 
I use it in a different way 
I use external sensors, as the MCZ wifi one eats battery like hell, ans I don’t find it very precise.
I’m using automations to turn it on and off depending of the Temperature from other sensors.
But thxs all for your help
That’s the next step here as well…
I’m planning on using a Xiaomi BLE Hygrothermograph as the sensor instead of the stove’s sensor.
When this arrives I will change the desired temperature based on the BLE sensor trough an automation rule. This way I can still let the stove use it’s internal pellet/ventilation management.
I’m using as well Xiaomi sensors though zigbee2mqtt, they work like a charm
Nice!
As I only need an on/off switch and a way to send/receive temperature, my thermostat card will do just fine for now
But it’s always interesting to see the yaml’s
Wow! Great Job! can you share please?

Hello,
and thanks a lot for your shares. I just bought a MCZ stove, and i really want to control it with Home Assistant. I’m running with Hassio on RPI4 and i’am intersted to know how you received MQTT events from your stove ?
Thanks a lot.

For me it’s done using this setup on a seperate pi:
Hello,
I’ve used a seperate Pi to connect to the MCZ servers. I’ve tried connecting to the stove directly but, the connection was too unstable.
I’ve used this package: https://github.com/pipolaq/maestro
Very nice project @Zeta38090! As I tend to buy a stove, that works the way you automated it, may i ask you what particular stove you´ve bought? And as I see it, the MCZ devices tend to have had addon wifi modules in different versions, maybe also the particular WiFi Module?
Other Hand: Do you or does anyone have an idea, if the MCZ devices always work via mqtt?
Thanks and regards,
Jakob
Hello,
I’ve got a MCZ Philo 14kW, with integrated wifi. Most of the new ones have integrated wifi I guess nowdays.

Hi Zeta38090,
can you post a complete howto? That would help me a lot, unfortunately I just can’t get it to work 
Sure, I’ll do that as soon as I can promise Gimme a couple of days

Thanks very much
Hi - Just checking if you’d found the time to write a HowTo… ?
Hello
Sorry for the long delay.
- connect your stove through wifi to the MCZ servers, to be able to control it through their app.
- On a another RPI (not the Hassio one), install this: https://github.com/pipolaq/maestro. Read all the requirements
- modify config.py with your own MQTT info, and maestro.py, with your own serial and MAC
- start the program. If you have a windows PC, you can check the MQTT messages using a free mqtt sniffer.
- When everything is up and running, configure MQTT in Hassio.
- Add the sensors I’ve listed on Jan 18 (Control MCZ Maestro pellet stove via HACore trough MQTT - #28 by Zeta38090), and restart Hassio.
Everything should be OK, if not, or if i’m not clear do not hesitate

For those who would be interested, I’ve created a small HA addon that embeds the python scripts from Chibald and Anthony-55 : ha-addons/maestro_gateway at main · SebLz/ha-addons · GitHub

Hello
Why install on a another RPI and not on a HASS ?
