  • Millions of people around the world drink instant coffee. But few know the simple techniques to make a perfect cup every time.
    In this video I will show you the secret techniques of making perfect instant coffee!
    I have no affiliation with the coffee brand shown in this video. I do find that the best instant coffee is made with Colombian coffee beans.
    ------------------------------------------------------------
    Here are the important factors of making proper instant coffee.
    1. The water - Use fresh filtered or bottled water. Do not use tap water. Tap water contains metals which will change the taste of the coffee and may even make it sour. Hot tap water from your water heater contains the most metals. So, if you have to use tap water, use cold tap water, not hot.
    2. Always heat FRESH water. Water that has been heated and cooled, and then heated again one or multiple times will taste flat from the dissolved oxygen. Use fresh bottled or filtered water that has not been previously heated for a good, fresh taste.
    3. Do not burn your coffee! Coffee is very sensitive to temperature. If you use water that is too hot, it will ruin the flavor and will make it taste more bitter. I like to use water at exactly 195°F (90°C). Use a kettle or a thermometer.
    4. Buffer the coffee crystals by first dissolving them in a little bit of cold water. This will further protect the flavor when you add hot water. And you can buffer even more by adding sugar and cream to the mixture before you add the hot water. Protect your coffe crystals!
    By following these 4 techniques, you will maximize the instant coffee and make it taste its best.

    Your technique for protecting the coffee and its flavor is appreciated. You really do produce some fine, helpful vids. Thank you!
    I’ve been using instant the last couple years. The hassle required and the clean-up with ground coffee, especially if one begins with beans, is a deal breaker for me. Cost vs. reward calculation. I’d rather expend time and effort on preparing other food.

      I am also a big fan of Keurig machines, with the little pods. Virtually zero cleanup, and you get coffee in about 90 seconds. Hundreds of different varieties of coffee available. I like organic Guatemalan coffee pods from Aldi. That's my every day coffee.

    Controversial, I know, but I prefer instant to fresh

      Not controversial to me. I've drank nothing but instant coffee for 11 years. What few times I've had regular ground coffee it doesn't taste right to me because I've been drinking instant for so long. So I can see why people who have drank ground all their life say instant doesn't taste right to them. It's all about what you're used to

      When I am avoiding carbs or sugar, I use Monfruit sweetener (Erythritol). It tastes just like sugar.

    I’ve been looking for a good method to make instant while on hikes and backpacking. This is the second video I’ve seen creating a thermal buffer.
    I’ll have to work on the ratios of cold to hot and total water to crystals as that isn’t included here. Especially for a black coffee.

    • @FoodChainTV
      @FoodChainTV  5 днів тому

      Cold water = just enough to disolve it.
      Hot water mix = Usually 1 tsp of coffee per 6oz of water. If you like it strong, you can add a little more coffee.

    How would you prepare it for ice coffee?

    • @FoodChainTV
      @FoodChainTV  Місяць тому

      I do the exact same thing and just pour it into a cup full of ice. Depends how you like your iced coffee. If you like it like a thick, sweet milkshake, then you'd have to add extra stuff to it. But I like it simple - just coffee over ice.

    • @tedbrayton

    I'm NOT a big fan of using bottled water since the bottles are bad for the earth, but I'm going to try this using water I save from our dehumidifier as a type of distilled water.

    • @FoodChainTV
      @FoodChainTV  21 день тому +1

      Your dehumidifier probably has your own sweat and possibly mold. I would not use dehumidifier water to make coffee. My two-cents.
