It's already 25DegC in my home office.

The best cooling automation I have so far is to turn the fan on when it's 25 for >5mins.

Is there a nice zigbee / ESP32 evaporation cooler that I can enjoying setting up with HA?

Remember that a fan does not cool the environment. It cools you due to pushing the hot air away from you, but it does not actually cool the air itself.

One step further actually, you’re directly dumping heat into the room by running the fan.
