Instant coffee, are you drinking it right?

Countless late nights that destroyed my brain cells

Who is accompanying us to stay up late and work overtime?

In spring, we feel tired and in autumn, and in the afternoon, we are the most exhausted and weak when we go to work.

(This one is cool, very suitable for sleeping)

Facing an unexpected "difficult" situation

The simple and crude solution is

coffee

Freshly ground coffee is not realistic.

At this time, the most convenient and quick instant

Faced with the endless stream of coffee brands on the market

How to choose?

To answer this question,

The Foodie did an ultimate review!

【 Nescafe Coffee 】

Taste: ★★★

The well-known Nestle coffee is the originator of instant coffee. It is very affordable and can be accepted by many people. It tastes light and sour, making it suitable as an entry-level coffee.

Nestlé's bottled coffee is a highlight. It is very unique and delicious, with a silky taste, and it does not require brewing, so it is very convenient.

I'd like to tell you a secret about their coffee. The bottled and instant coffees have different tastes . I think the recipes are different...

【 Maxwell House Coffee 】

Taste: ★★★

This is also a common brand with many varieties and flavors. It is often found in supermarkets. It is quite standard, with a mild taste that is not sour but rather sweet.

The raw materials of Nestlé and Maxwell House are both coffee beans from Southeast Asia, but Maxwell House is a little more pleasing in the balance of sugar and milk.

Maxwell's white coffee tastes better, but the trans fats... you fairies know what I mean, so drink less.

【 Malaysia Old Street White Coffee 】

Taste: ★★★★★

I highly recommend this product! It is a famous imported brand from Ipoh, Malaysia. It can be bought in supermarkets. The characteristic of this coffee is that the capacity is very large. You can hold a small bag full in your hand.

White coffee is made from a type of small-grain white coffee beans from Brazil. After brewing, it has a pure taste without the bitterness and sourness of ordinary coffee.

The two flavors recommended by Foodie are hazelnut and original . Hazelnut flavor is suitable for young girls, while original flavor is suitable for elegant young women. They are sweet and fragrant, mild and will not cause irritation, and are very popular!

【 Japanese UCC instant coffee 】

Taste: ★★★★

UCC is one of the largest coffee manufacturers in Japan. It is located in Kobe and has its own coffee bean plantations. It only uses beans grown in various coffee bean origins around the world.

The most popular flavor is 117, which is not sour but rather bitter, and retains a rich baking flavor. It has a mellow and smooth taste, and leaves a lingering aftertaste on the lips and teeth. It is of high quality.

But people who are not used to bitter coffee may not like them too much...UCC has a high caffeine content and is suitable for young and middle-aged office workers . Teenagers and the elderly should be careful when purchasing it.

【 Vietnam Trung Nguyen G7 Coffee 】

Taste: ★★★

This brand comes from Vietnam. The taste of the Chinese-made G7 and the Vietnamese version of G7 is very different. It is cheap and very popular in Vietnam.

It has a moderate sour and bitter taste, low sweetness, and a slightly less mellow taste at first, but it has a full aroma. Some people add condensed milk to G7 coffee to increase its sweetness.

It has a good refreshing effect and a strong charcoal flavor, which is suitable for students who stay up late to finish their homework .

[ German DAVIDOFF coffee ]

Taste: ★★★★★

This instant coffee from Germany is a sub-product of Davidoff. It is relatively expensive but has a medium price-performance ratio.

The first choice for office workers , its aroma is comparable to freshly ground handmade coffee!

Their black coffee is really delicious, low in calories and refreshing , but people who are not used to it may not be able to adapt to it.

【 Germany Grant Coffee GRANDOS 】

Taste: ★★★★★

A famous German coffee brand, the ingredients are produced in Italy. It is not strong at first but full of fragrance. It is packaged in a carry-on bag for easy carrying during travel.

Its classic original cappuccino is very delicious, with a mellow taste and rich aftertaste. Although it is a cappuccino, there is very little milk foam, so your mouth won’t be filled with it. The charcoal smell is low, but it’s full of American flavor.

【 Starbucks VIA Instant Coffee 】

Taste: ★★★★★

Of course, the well-known Starbucks is indispensable. This coffee is actually brew-free coffee rather than instant coffee.

It has received wide acclaim in the domestic market. The taste is better than that of freshly ground coffee from ordinary coffee machines. Moreover, VIA's milk coffee does not contain creamer but natural milk powder, which makes it more reassuring than ordinary instant coffee.

Although instant coffee is only used for emergency

But some people have summarized many methods

It tastes better

Share a few tips for brewing instant coffee

No matter how busy

You have to be worthy of your taste.

Foodie chatter :

• The brewing water temperature should be controlled between 80 and 90 degrees.

• The golden ratio for brewing instant coffee is 1 teaspoon of coffee powder to 150ml of hot water

• Heat milk and water on fire until boiling, then turn to low heat and keep it just boiling. Pour instant coffee in and cook it for a while, and there will be no strange smell.

• Fairies who love sweets can throw two marshmallows into the coffee!

• It is recommended that everyone avoid those "three-in-one" and "mocha coffee" on the market as much as possible. The common knowledge about how the trans fatty acids in non-dairy creamer harm the cardiovascular system and induce obesity has been repeated countless times by the media, so I will not elaborate on it here.
