❗ There is a greate Step-By-Step guide from user HolgiHab at openhab community (Step-By-Step Guide). This guide is not only for light bulbs, but also applies to sockets. ❗
Example items for OpenHAB 1.x Bindings (still works with OH > 2.4 but only if legacy 1.x MQTT bindings are enabled)

With OpenHAB 2.X MQTT bindings you can add devices using a generic MQTT Thing via PaperUI or configuration files. For PaperUI simply at the generic MQTT Thing and set the state and command topics as follows:
tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/state
tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command
If you prefer using configuration files vs PaperUI, it should look something like this: See also OpenHAB 2.X MQTT binding documentation
Bridge mqtt:broker:myUnsecureBroker [ host="localhost", secure=false ]

Thing mqtt:topic:myCustomMQTT {

Type switch : tuya_kitchen_coffeemachine_mqtt_channel "Kitchen Coffee Machine MQTT Channel" [

commandTopic="tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command",
// optional custom mqtt-payloads for ON and OFF
on="{ \"dps\": 1, \"set\": true }",

channel="mqtt:topic:myUnsecureBroker:myCustomMQTT:tuya_kitchen_coffeemachine_mqtt_channel"
}
For one RGB bulb you would need a separate channel with the command topic set to
tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/color
and link that to your color item.
Bridge mqtt:broker:myUnsecureBroker [ host="localhost", secure=false ]
