We have a Keurig machine in our office, I drink a minimum of 1 cup a day from this device, is that considered instant coffee?
Anything that comes from a machine is better than instant coffee! Instant is like a jar where you mix a teaspoon of granules with boiling water, apparently it's hideous! As a non coffee drinker I'm oblivious 8)
No, you may be describing a French press, actually. And the water should be hot, but not boiling.
FYI.
A French Press is where you put the coffee grounds in the jar, add hot water and let it brew for a couple minutes before pressing the grounds down and pouring off the coffee. Gives a stronger brew because the coffee actually sits in the water for a while. Many people swear by this brewing method. Others prefer percolators, where the hot water is basically forced to run over the grounds and drip down repeatedly for several minutes. Others like the automatic drip machines, where the hot water is run over the grounds a single time. Finally, there's the single serve machines that are very convenient if you don't want to brew a full pot every time. All of these are generally considered brewed coffee, not instant.
Instant coffee is basically coffee-flavoured drink crystals. I think technically it's freeze-dried coffee, but pretty much an act of desperation no matter how you describe it.
Most of it is freeze-dried, gross
Thats why I like the starbucks one - its nano-ground coffee, actual coffee. great camping and still not the normal instant junk

Sounds more like Turkish coffee. Great stuff, just be careful not to drink the grounds!

Nano-grounds are so fine they completely disolve... It's quite excellent....
I have other good nano-powder stories - but I shall keep the thread on track currently lol
I love my coffee. Keurig..every cup fresh and fun to try all the diff varieties...but the best coffee I ever had was made by my great uncle (WW 2 Vet) boiled the grounds in a pan of water on the stove, added an egg white just at the end and could pour into a cup with no grounds. :shock: yum

Try drinking coffee and not soil :roll:
I tried coffee and it is disgusting. it tastes like dirt.
well except for coffee crisp. that is good
All coffee varieties don't taste the same.... Imagine your first beer was a Bud Light, you'd never try beer again
