To make instant coffee lose some of it's bitterness and produce a better flavor, first add a tad bit of COLD water and mix it up. The pour in the hot water and stir. This removes bitterness and makes a better coffee. If you use cream in your coffee, let the cream be the tad bit of liquid that you mix the coffee in before pouring in the hot water.
Have this guy taste the same coffees again but give each cup to him without him knowing which coffee brand it is. Then play back-to-back the old the new reviews of each cup and compare the old and new ratings.
WHY WHY WHY DO AMERICANS say bunch for anything that's not a bunch. You can have a bunch of flowers, a bunch of grapes and a bunch of keys, YOU CAN'T HAVE A BUNCH OF COFFEE it makes you sound so DUMB

What an interesting video! Loved how he didn’t take a buzzfeed-esque pretentious/over the top “eww instant coffee” approach! I’ve overlooked instant coffee in favor of my morning french press but I’ll pick up a few of these just to try it for myself!
With all the complaining about Starbucks coffee costing $2.15 a cup, I find it ironic that all of these instant coffees have found a way to price themselves at $2 to $3 a cup. That is, all of them except Starbucks, which is the least expensive at 88 cents a cup.

I drink the Pike Place because it's usually the strongest blend on hand at the grocery store Starbucks. Flavor is secondary to strength and the lighter the blend, the higher caffeine. My go to is the blonde roast, a venti packs 470 mg of caffeine, that's like 2.5 cans of Monster Energy. The thing is, I normally have to go to a regular Starbucks to get a cup of that in a speedy manner, which would involve backtracking on my way to work.

I think he is being psychologically influenced by the brand names. Now if it was a blind taste test, and he didn't know the brands ahead of time, that would be good.
I'm not a fan of ANY coffee that has anything in it except coffee. No citrus. No nut. No cream. No sugar. None of that stuff. I like coffee. If I want citrus I'll eat an orange or drink citrus juice of some kind. I like non-bitter but full bodied instant coffee.
DONT LET HIM KNOW THE BRAND HE IS TASTING! Also tell him one will be Tasters Choice and one will be a Maxwell House and watch him find 2 "awful" coffees in this same group of coffees.

I got this Jacobs brand instant coffee from Amazon. It's alright tasting but my mouth and throat started to make this nasty phlegm. I'm now 70% sure it's because of this coffee. It's bad. The other day I was afraid I was going to die due not being able to breath properly. Had to throw up a lot. Anyone else have this experience with instant coffee? I'm going back to Nestle even though I hear they are not a very ethical company.
@@joeway8665 I don't think so. I took two vaccinations ASAP and haven't had any other symptoms. I believe I would have had fever at least if it was Covid. I went to see a doctor and he examined my throat and found nothing. He felt some cartilage there he suspected might be something. Sent me first to a lab for blood and then ultrasound my throat. I smoke white Marlboros a pack a day. I was ofc afraid it would be throat cancer but blood values were all normal and ultrasounding my throat they also found nothing. Doctor said it could have been psychological.. So yeah I've been drinking the Jacobs and other instant coffees after that and have been fine. I haven't thrown up any phlegm like before or felt that my throat was super restricted. It's still not clear a throat but maybe it's the cigarettes... maybe I'm allergic to caffeine. Idk. Gonna give vaping another change soon after I find a non-leaking mod. They all suck. Bought 5 tanks already and all leak. I was able to quit smoking cigs for 2 years with a working tank and liquids but ofc EU had to restrict nicotine liquids and fucked that up for me. Had to order some shady liquids that started making me cough uncontrollably so I went back smoking cigs. Who knows what it was but drinking that coffee didn't help.
Ironically (or not) I had a suggested video in my TH-cam home screen this morning about the evils that Nestle has, and is still perpetuating on the world. Pretty sure I do not have any of their products now but will root out this "evil" if found! It is horrible big companies like Nestle are able to get away with so much. IE: Google, Facebook, etc.
This guy is such a tool. Citrus and honeydew melon, lmfao... ive had hundreds of kinds of coffees over the world..and never once have i had a coffee that made me think of citrus and honeydew. These types of people are the absolute worst.. reminds me of folks who go wine tasting yet couldnt tell the difference between a $20 & $300 bottle of wine if they were blindfolded. Smh

The majority of us that drink instant coffee DO NOT buy these expensive hipster brands.
Nescafé will do!
Exactly
Yur sleeping on mount Hagen
I didn't know there was a thing like high-quality instant coffee. I want to try them. 💕
I’m planning an off-road motorcycle trip this summer, and this helped in selecting a decent instant coffee to bring along. Thanks.
I'd also recommend giving Waka coffee a try!
How about bringing along some portable gadget? Making coffee at the beach is a joy mate
Most sedate coffee drinker ever 😏

Lol 😆🤣
south korea has such a huuuge instant coffee culture.... i'd say instant coffee is more popular than real coffee there >_> lol
They make instant coffee taste so good!
@@meej6452 Instant coffee in Korea is crap.
I dont think this is true
Instant coffee culture in India is also very strong so much that, people don't realise it is instant coffee 😆
I've tasted korean instant coffee and ngl they tastes bad (I'm comparing it to specialty coffee, which is unfair but yea)
You might've forgot about Nescafe. I've been drinking it for years now.
Nescafe is on the lower end. It is not new wave too
Thanks for the review as not too many people review instant coffee - can you please try Mount Hagen instant coffee a try on your next review.
I know Starbucks would still end up low on the rating, but their Columbia instant is way better than the Pike Place!

@@palabrajot505 try the caffe bustelo instant coffee. It is instant espresso. I love strong coffee and when I drink instant,its one of my go to packs.
Rich man's instant coffee. Rich people gotta have their instant, too!
Lovely video. But how about a list or maybe a link to buy them? I could barely hear the names and those packages don't give much to go on.
Just google their names bruh

Lmao
What's wrong with the supermarket cheaper brands?
All BS. Do a honest blind test.
_But was he neutralizing the taste in his mouth per coffee?_
Instant coffee is good option if you are in a military camp or doing outdoor military training.
wait if you are an expert why the hell where you reading from a script on what to look for in coffee.... i smell bullshit
He got that 5 years on Amphs vibe lol
Nice of this badass Army Ranger to take some time away from his favorite hobby (rebuilding truck transmissions) to review some instant coffee.
Seems like a nice young man, very informative but I needed a jolt of caffeine to get through the video . This guy is the Perry Como of coffee tasters. Only old folks will get that reference . Liven it up just a tad son.
That cup is gigantic
I would say
Interesting and definitely not helpful video.
I can't buy 98% of those coffees in my country or in some of the neighboring countries.
This vocal fry talkin’ Emo boy is driving me crazy. Aldi Beaumont instant coffee is best. Nyah!!
I have a $20 mr coffee pot and I buy Peet's ground coffee @ costco...WTF would I want instant coffee?
So cool! Upset Starbucks even made it in the line up though. Come on
Did he get sleep before this video?

Way way way out of my price range, especially when the Nescafe's of the world provide so much more quantity for so much less Kala!
You're treading on dangerous ground, most do-gooders of the world like to rant about Nestle and how supposedly evil it is.

will our new Chinese controllers allow coffee?I'm asking for a friend
Christ.......I had a difficult time watching this. He said the word "Like" more then a Valley Girl from 1982.
Change is coming
Fascinated with the packaging?? He’s been drinking since he was 16. So, for about a year.
Some of those packages are annoying
This guy is just saying ahh citrus ahh berries ahh caramel ahhh ahhh subtle notes of blah blah blah...
Speak up Reagan. This isn't ASMR!
Like, like, like......
Are you kidding me? A “Pro Coffee Taster”? WTF
Somebody's got to do it. I sure hope the coffee I buy has been tested and approved by someone
Subtle Cinnamon Clove, ??? They taste different how can you compare?!?!?
VOICE FRYYYYYYY
Did he just pout hot water over the dry coffee??? 🤣 amateur
Uh...no
