How to brew instant coffee

Container

Generally, porcelain cups are chosen, but ceramic cups are also acceptable, as they taste slightly better than glass cups. The size of the cup can be any size. The inner wall should be smooth and white is preferred.

▅ See manufacturer's instructions

① When brewing instant coffee, you must first read the brewing instructions written by the manufacturer, such as the water temperature, the amount of water, etc. Generally, a small bar of coffee is 35g, and 180ml of water (85℃～90℃) is required.

② First, pour the boiled water directly into the coffee cup, let the coffee cup be heated for 30 seconds, then pour out the hot water and brew the coffee. First, pour 180ml of water (85℃～90℃) into the coffee cup, then pour a small bag of coffee into the cup, gently stir evenly, and let the coffee powder dissolve completely under the action of hot water.

③ After all the coffee is dissolved, you can drink it. The coffee is the most fragrant at this time. When it drops to 60 degrees, drink it as soon as possible because the coffee tastes the best at this time. Note that good instant coffee will not become sour when it cools down.

▅ Add milk foam (coffee creamer)

This one is a little tricky. You need to use a spoon to slowly sprinkle the milk foam about 2 inches above the mouth of the cup, like a waterfall, but not too fast, so that the milk foam can dissolve into the coffee little by little, instead of putting the milk foam into the coffee with a spoon and stirring it hard.

The difference between the two has a significant impact on taste.

Another thing to note is that during the sprinkling process, do not sprinkle the milk foam on the same position of the coffee. That is to say, the spoon should be moved back and forth and left and right to allow the milk foam to dissolve as evenly as possible in the coffee.

The amount of milk foam is 1.5 to 2 times the amount of coffee. For example, one spoon of coffee and two spoons of milk foam. (Generally speaking, the quality of ordinary instant coffee beans is not good, and if you don’t add enough milk, the taste will be bad.)

▅ Coffee time

The best time to drink coffee every day is from 3 to 5 pm in spring and winter, and from 4 to 6 pm in summer and autumn, because this is the time when the human body is most tired.

The best time to drink coffee is 10 am.
