If I want a cup of coffee at some other time of the day, just putting the kettle on is so easy. With cream and sugar, my instant coffee tastes quite similar to my neighbor's expensively brewed stuff.

      It does, the issue is that they tend to use robusto beans and then process them in a way that does the beans no favors. If I know that I'm going to want a cup of coffee quickly with lead time, I'll do cold brew. But, it's difficult to compete with coffee that's ready immediately. It's kind of a shame that coffee in tea bags isn't a more common thing.

    To be honest, I stopped drinking Nescafé because the flavor changed drastically.
    I even tried the Gold, over the regular one, however, the taste changed!
    My mother-in-law worked at an hotel, and she occasionally brought me coffee bought from a wholesaler.
    In 2010, that coffee was AMAZING!
    In 2020, the coffee is just... Meh.
    Nescafé, being part of the Nestlé group, maybe tried to force people from instant coffee to coffee pods - where it dominates in Europe, from Dolce Gusto and Nespresso.
    However, this tactic failed miserably.
    Not only because the patent over its Nespresso coffee pods ended, but also due to the increase competition on that segment.
    Moreover, due to inflation, many people bought automatic machines, which shifted some demand to ground coffee, in order to both save money and get a great coffee.
    That is what I did!
    Nestlé, please get your act together!
    If you do so, I will go back to instant coffee in between meals 😀
    Otherwise, I will continue on my ground coffee across all my day.

      I would have thought your statement was inaccurate because you'll still have the grounds and waste at the production stage... But I did a bit of research and found out that you're actually right - instant coffee is greener than drip or brewed coffee. The beans are grown much more quickly (unless they're specialty instant) and processed at a very large scale, with much higher extraction rates (up to 80%), meaning less waste. The grounds can also be used to power the production process, resulting in even more efficiency.

    The problem in many countries is kitchens are generally small, so it seems to much to invest in a cappuccino or brewing machine with no space around, what they have is a frother / shaker (for coffee) and maybe the coffee press (simpler ones) but they will invest only if beans are available to ground. Generally coffee beans are not available in non production areas except with starbucks😂, so no way to ground up, so instant coffee is easy & way cheaper and it matches tea making procedures (that's why instant is popular in UK and almost all tea drinking countries except in south India (were coffee is produced and beans are readily available) or all coffee producing ones in general.

    Instant coffee is ok in a pinch, but grinding beans and using a filter is far superior when it comes to flavor.
    I look forward to my freshly ground cup of coffee every morning, after lunch, and sometimes 6 hours before bed if I need an extra boost of energy.

    I'm not against instant coffee. Please tell me what are the best tasting instant coffee brands. I have only ever tried folders and maxwell house instant coffee and I think both taste terrible.

    Never for me only the reel coffee made with my Italian espresso machine I buy my coffee beans and grind it every morning, nothing can replace the smell and taste, not to mention the quality. It's like when I drink espreso in Italy.

    After taking a tour in Colombia at one of the finkas, during our class on coffee production and process, I was informed that instant coffee is actually 2nd tier coffee. Most people are now aware of good quality coffee.

    I’m definitely an instant coffee drinker that’s what we drink at home here in Australia and I do like Nescafé Gold. When I do travel to to the USA I do still buy instant but I don’t mind trying their black coffee that is unique to Americans 😊

    I have always thought instant coffee was terrible. Even with budget concerns it is not difficult to just do a simple pour over of normal coffee with a reusable filter to save costs.

      I do pourover every day. Starbucks Via instant coffee is actually very good, they spent millions making a better process. But personally I'm not a fan of using a little packet to make a tiny cup of coffee unless I'm camping or on vacation

      That’s because the us produces the worst tasting instant coffee. The other countries produce a way more fragrant teas and coffee at a low cost.

    Somehow the one piece of information that would seem to be the most important and relevant to understanding the story, what the consumption percentage in the U.S. for instant coffee was before it was 4%, is missing. I'm not convinced it dropped significantly - I've never known any person in my entire life in the U.S. who drinks instant coffee and it's something many grocery stores don't even carry at all even though they all have dozens or sometimes even hundreds of different fresh coffee options.

    If you really don't mind instant coffee, you should go to your local Asian store and buy a box of Maxim Korean instant coffee. I use the Maxim Gold, comes in little sleeves with coffee, creamer and sugar. Just keep in mind that in Korea coffee is served in smaller cups, so if you want a full 8 ounce cup, use two sleeves. Depending on how much your stores sells it for, it comes in a box of 100 sleeves, it works out to be about 50 cents a cup.
