The idea of ​​the coffee maker came to Kweku. He is a resident of Ghana, United States. Talking about his education, he completed his BS in Civil Engineering from Cleveland State University.

This business idea came to him when he used to work on construction sites Then he needed a cup of coffee so he was looking for the nearest shop but it was too far away.

So he had to find a solution to this problem, so he developed a design, in which he made a prototype of the product through the 3D printer.

He checked the durability and quality of the prototype and started looking for a manufacturer so that this final product could be designed.

Ross Smith is another partner of this company, he is a social media influencer, he has 45 million followers on all his social platforms.

Mark Cuban said that Brumachen’s, which is worth $10 million, but he doesn’t deserve $10 million. This is the reason he is out of this deal.

Robert Herjavec says this is a great product about this business, the design is also good but he does not think of the $10 million valuation, so this reasons he is out.
