Different behaviour color_temp and brightness

Hi,
First post and very new to all of this, but willing to learn

Running HA on Raspi 4b. Installed RaspBee II. Have a IKEA Tradfri remote and light bulb which can be manipulated from HA.

Now I’m trying to assign the normal functionality to the buttons of the remote. I know I can do this from within deCONZ, but I want to keep everything in HA.

These are the automations I use for that:

- id: '1587459801036'

    platform: event
  condition: []
  action:
  - data_template:
      color_temp: '{{state_attr(''light.bureau_marc'', ''color_temp'') + 25}}'
    entity_id: light.bureau_marc
    service: light.turn_on
- id: '1587461216277'
  alias: Decrease Color Temp

The frustrating part is that changing brightness works like a charm, changing color_temp does nothing. Instead of color_temp, I’ve also tried kelvin. Same issue.
If I don’t try to use a function for color_temp, but simply set it to an integer, it works. As soon as I try to do the formule, it stops working.

Any help appreciated to get this working.
