Ahhhhhhh yum!

Clever coffee tips for your a quick cup!

– If you drink your coffee with milk, mix the coffee and milk in the cup or mug before you add the water. It gives your coffee a much creamier taste.

– Don’t add the water to your coffee as soon as it boils. Allow the water to sit for a minute before pouring. This avoids you scalding the coffee.

– Coffee goes stale after 4 weeks of opening. You will notice a big difference in the taste if the jar has been opened for a long time. If you only have instant coffee at home, buy the right sized jar that you will use up within a month.

– Don’t reheat your coffee if it goes cold. Toss it out and make a fresh one. Microwaving your coffee instantly gives it a stale taste.

– Instant coffee now comes in a large variety of strengths. If you like your cup to have a mild taste, buy a mild blend rather than using a smaller amount of a strong blend. That way you will still get the full flavour. Ideally you should use 1 heaped teaspoon for each 150ml of water.

– Experiment with some of the flavoured coffee’s that are now available, they can make for enjoyable sipping in an instant.

Enjoy your next instant coffee!
