Missing from the video is that Robusta production involves massive deforestation. Robusta grows in open sun, so they cut down tons of trees. Arabica grows in the shade and can grow under existing trees.

To be honest, I stopped drinking Nescafé because the flavor changed drastically. I even tried the Gold, over the regular one, however, the taste changed! My mother-in-law worked at an hotel, and she occasionally brought me coffee bought from a wholesaler. In 2010, that coffee was AMAZING! In 2020, the coffee is just... Meh. Nescafé, being part of the Nestlé group, maybe tried to force people from instant coffee to coffee pods - where it dominates in Europe, from Dolce Gusto and Nespresso. However, this tactic failed miserably. Not only because the patent over its Nespresso coffee pods ended, but also due to the increase competition on that segment. Moreover, due to inflation, many people bought automatic machines, which shifted some demand to ground coffee, in order to both save money and get a great coffee. That is what I did! Nestlé, please get your act together! If you do so, I will go back to instant coffee in between meals 😀 Otherwise, I will continue on my ground coffee across all my day.

I would have thought your statement was inaccurate because you'll still have the grounds and waste at the production stage... But I did a bit of research and found out that you're actually right - instant coffee is greener than drip or brewed coffee. The beans are grown much more quickly (unless they're specialty instant) and processed at a very large scale, with much higher extraction rates (up to 80%), meaning less waste. The grounds can also be used to power the production process, resulting in even more efficiency.

Juan Valdez is the best!!

Ive been using Instant Coffee my whole life..... Bought "real" coffee for the first time last week and will never look back. Flavor is unbeatable. Might keep some on the back burner just to boost caffeine content

back then, I was an instant coffee drinker, but after i have a espresso machine, i won't come back. doesn't mean instant coffee taste bad, but it's far inferior compare to freshly grinded espresso, even if you'are not a barista or using "Super Automatic" coffee maker.

Espresso does not have an “X.” Amateur Hour

The graph at min 4:29 does not show a decrease but an increase in the consumption of instant coffee in the USA. Don't they know how to read their own graphs?

That's what I was saying. They don't even have a story here and yet they still decided to run with it. And people even bought it, no one is commenting this in the comments.

I worked in coffee shops for 10 years and when people asked me what my favorite drink was, I would always say black coffee. Since quitting, I have only drunk instant coffee which I buy at my supermarket and make at home. It is a thing of the utmost beauty to sip my rich, black, heavily caffeinated goodness in the quiet, stress-free splendor of my home everyday instead of the chaotic, traffic-driven madness of a coffee shop every morning.

Once I bought a French press I can have a fresh cup of coffee in 10 minutes. There's no longer a need to settle for instant. I do keep in Folger's instant decaf, but it's definitely not a good as fresh brewed.

Using the Chemex or Hario V60 pour over brewing methods is far far superior. Both of those also make it easier to taste the subtle flavor notes.

@@ws1814lol so naive. We are a coffee producing country and we have so much variety here that we can cheaply buy from Arabica to Robusta, to Excelsa and Barako, but lol not all will waste time all the time just to prep coffee using a coffee machine. Nescafe despite the mediocre taste is just simply a well loved brand here, for people who would just like a quick fix of caffeine. I have so much coffee beans in my house but nothing beats an instant coffee fix with my Nescafe Gold.😂

Beautiful pictures from the Central Highlands in Vietnam. And the Saigon skyline today. Great!!!

The problem in many countries is kitchens are generally small, so it seems to much to invest in a cappuccino or brewing machine with no space around, what they have is a frother / shaker (for coffee) and maybe the coffee press (simpler ones) but they will invest only if beans are available to ground. Generally coffee beans are not available in non production areas except with starbucks😂, so no way to ground up, so instant coffee is easy & way cheaper and it matches tea making procedures (that's why instant is popular in UK and almost all tea drinking countries except in south India (were coffee is produced and beans are readily available) or all coffee producing ones in general.

I still get it. Just not my daily driver.

Very bitterness compared to regular grounds coffee.

I drink instant coffee because starbucks doesn't deserve a plug nickel from me.

Until about three weeks ago I was drinking an average of 15 cups of coffee per Day.....I Love coffee ...BUT what have the producers done?!!!!! The coffee tastes Awful now.....I tried my usual nescafe gold, then classic ...then even several different beans that we ground at home ......But Something in the products have seriously changed to the detriment of the end product ! ! I miss my coffee but I will have to adjust to drinking tea if I can't get any delicious coffee product anymore........HELP!!!!!

Whatever crap people drink here in America is not coffee. I’m originally from Colombia, and even that cheap Sello Rojo garbage they sell there tastes better than the burned sewage water that Starbucks and Dunkin make. My gringo husband was so used to the burned taste of American “coffee” that he didn’t believe me, so I made for him the only coffee I drink here in the U.S.: Juan Valdez instant coffee. He said it maybe tasted better but wasn’t totally convinced. So, when we ran out of that instant coffee, he then went back to Starbucks and couldn’t even finish his cup: he said it tasted burned! 🤣

CNBC has done pieces on environmental issues, and I’m sure CNBC knows Nestle is the largest food and beverage company, which causes the most damage to our environment. So did Nestle pay CNBC to do a piece showing a happy couple picking coffee beans. Did CNBC ignore all the children hidden from the camera because in 2023 Nestle did 33.8 in their coffee business as you stated.

Nestle isn't holding people at gun point or on pain of death are they? No. It is up to people of their own countries to implement their own laws. They aren't slaves. I'll continue to buy their products. So will you. So shove it with your platitudes.

I drink instant coffee everyday. I feel in love with it living in England

I started drinking instant coffee recently when I have to go in to the office to work. Since working from home took off and the inconsistency of who is going to be in the office at any given time, they don't have coffee any more. A few people have Keurig machines bit they are very possessive of them and don't want to let anyone else use theirs. So picked up sleeves of instant. I found it generally acceptable.

I love grinding fresh beans into my French press for my morning coffee 😋

43 years ago my husband and I got started drinking coffee from drinking instant coffee for a long time. It was quick and easy to make early in the morning before work. Haven’t drank it in 40 years. I did purchase some a couple of years ago for a recipe but not for drinking.

I do brewed for 2 years now. No sugar, no acid, and smells really good. love it.

I only drink instant coffee. It's convenient and hygienic. Can't tell the difference b/w brewed and instant coffee. I'm sure most people won't be able to tell the difference if blind tasted.

Facts

Instant coffee in America was horrible... absolutely horrible, compared to what customers get in the UK. I never knew coffee could be horrible until I tasted the instant coffee in the US, until then the worst I ever had was 'mediocre'...

I used to drink Nescafe instant coffee in Japan. but after I got married to my husband who is from Europe, My taste changed different. My husband doesn't like instant coffee. therefore, I grind coffee beans every week to enjoy with aroma. Of course the fresh coffee tastes so different. Even coffee beans have gotten very expensive in the last few years, I will not go back to instant coffee.

Coffee to me is like Vaping and Smoking. Its not just for the effects, its a hobby of alchemy with 'rituals' that ease the spirit.
