I just wish we never would have stigmatized instant-coffee.
I drink a pot of coffee a day from my Moccamaster, but when I'm travelling I would much rather have instant coffee than use one of those flavorless, stale pods.
Instant coffee stores better and is better for the environment. Snobs let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

I don't drink much coffee at all but I love using instant coffee to make coffee-flavored things.
- blululu 3y agoInstant is great. You can also buy higher quality instant coffee these days at a fraction of the cost of ground beans (the down market options get pretty bleak). I have taken to bringing instant in to work simply because it is substantially better than the numerous poorly maintained machines in the office.
