ABOUT THE PROJECT
The goal of Alvina's project was to identify insights from users, businesses, and technology and translate them into innovative solutions that improve the current coffee brewing/coffee consumption experience for college students. mokapot+ is a relatively inexpensive coffee maker that has a customizable flavor but does not take up much space and produces good quality coffee but requires no expertise in coffee making.
