If you’re a coffee lover, Coffee Joules could be the solution for you. Thanks to Dave & Dave, two 20-something mechanical engineers who invented the Coffee Joulies, it will be available for the public later this summer.

You can have this unique experience at the Momofuku Ando Instant Ramen Museum in Ikeda Osaka, Japan. The museum’s admission is free, but to make your own personalized Cup Ramen Noodles, it will cost you 300 Yen or about $3.00. If you would like to try a more challenging task then you will want to go upstairs where you can make your own Ramen noodles from scratch for 500 Yen.
