About
Instant coffee is made by brewing coffee into a concentrated liquid, then removing the water through either spray drying or freeze drying to create soluble granules or powder. First commercially produced in the early 1900s, instant coffee accounts for over 50% of global coffee consumption. Modern specialty instant brands use high-quality single-origin beans and freeze-drying technology to produce cups approaching fresh-brewed complexity and flavor.
