Instant coffee is a convenient way to get your caffeine fix on the go, so I wanted to test the most common easy-to-find instant coffee for all your camping trips and road trips. This instant coffee tasting was so much fun, and the results really surprised me...

This was so much fun!! Have you tried any of these instant coffees? Comment below with your reviews 🤗

@YNOTRC 3 года назад

Love this vid my wife and I watch ya often we too have tried all these over the past few years and found the bustello my fav of you're list and the Shug Emery recommended Medaglia Doro instant espresso to be the all time fav now.

@roselee_explores 3 года назад

I've been using the Alpine Start both their Dirty Chai and Coffee (+Creamer) ones on backpacking trips. I liked them because they blend up really well in cold water and I can just shake it up and sip as I'm hiking down the trail :) I'll have to try some of the others and see how they do.

@ChrisJohnsonCJs-Kitchen 8 месяцев назад

I just bought the Cafe Bustello for the first time, but haven't tried it yet. I use instant coffee during the week when I'm the only one having coffee since I normally only have a single cup, it's just not worth it to make a whole pot. I'm hopeful now.

@acm5739 3 года назад

If anyone has an Indian/International store handy, my absolute favorite Instant coffee is called "Bru," which is very popular in India. Super cheap, and sort of has a touch of hazelnut aftertaste to it, which I like a lot. Comes in a big glass jar, so for backpacking I just toss a few scoops into a stasher bag.

Bustelo is the go to when there is nothing else to go to. Editing this - I frequently travel and on the occasions where the hotel coffee is "swill", I dip into the assortment of Cafe Bustelo and Starbucks Via that I always have with me. Both are good but I prefer the Bustelo for taste and price.

Thanks... I lead our scouts on a hike yesterday and wanted to take some coffee, so picked up some Cafe Bustello at Target. Packed some in a ziplock bag with coffee mate already mixed, so was super fast to get some coffee from the jet boil when we stopped for lunch. And it was quite yummy! Thanks....

@ronaldrose7593 3 года назад

Hello Amanda, in recent months I got hooked on the Starbucks Via Pikes Place. I really enjoy its taste. Do not use the full packet, use only 1/2 to 2/3 of pouch. If you use the full pouch, the coffee tends to be too bitter. Thanks for sharing your taste test. Take care, be safe and stay 🙏 healthy. 🤗

@freddysflyz 3 года назад

That background music tho - awesome! Folgers or Starbucks are my go to choices. It’s very personal I suppose. 👍🏻

@techiyarenanabatyhuh7243 2 года назад

Hi! New subscriber here☺️ As a coffee drinker myself for many years. The coffee that I would make on the regular was Muletown's Woodsman whole been coffee. But my family and I recently moved off grid and my husband and I wanted something easy to make in the morning. But we tried every instant coffee we could try and most tasted horrible! The one instant coffee we absolutely fell in love with would be Elite, it's exactly what we wanted in taste.

@Greenwitch_Garden 2 года назад

It took me a while to find an instant coffee that tasted good and when I found Mount Hagen my journey was complete! So glad you enjoy it in a blind taste test! I also tried cafe bustelo instant recently and found it to be a close second for taste preference!

Great idea! I’ll have to try Cafe Bustelo. I love Maxim instant coffee that is usually available at Asian markets. It has cream and sugar already mixed in with the perfect proportions.

@laurapodergois2802 3 года назад

I love Cafe Bustello. I think it’s essentially their espresso blend put in a single serve and ground just slightly finer. I keep them at work for an afternoon burst in those long days.

@sallymulcare5254 3 года назад

Bustelo is often used around here in Tampa Bay when making Cafe con Leche!

@quentinandashtonbyers9797 3 года назад

I'm honestly surprised! But I think what also plays in this, is if you like bitter black coffee or if you like flavorful black coffee. There's a huge gap even without creamers! 😫 Who knew coffee could be so complicated! Either way, we use a coffee maker while camping. Glamping! Lol.... not sure I could get on board to the instant. The only instant I've had.. was YUCK! ...... brand was walmart incase you were wondering. But I loved watching this so much. Thanks for sharing!

I've tried the Mount Hagen, and I like it! It's very mild, but still gives a good buzz. It's one of the only coffees I can drink without cream or sweetener. That might be a turn-off for some, but I like it. Good coffee flavor, not a lot of bitterness. I really want to try the cafe bustelo now, especially if the price point is better.

@MichelleCTorresGrant 3 года назад

I've had the Starbucks, which was low on the "OK" rating. As I recall (it was last year), it tasted a little burnt. On my last camping trip I brought Mt. Hagen, which I purchased at Whole Foods. I was pleasantly surprised on how good and full flavored it was. If I didn't know and someone just handed me a cup I wouldn't have guessed it was instant coffee.

Yes! Cafe bustelo is my go to. I’m glad it was in your top 2 so I will just stick with it. I would love to hear which ones you didn’t like or just rank them in order. I had tasters choice once and genuinely gagged. Lol. Folgers is all right but bustelo wins in my book. And now I don’t have to try the expensive ones. Yay!

You definitely can taste the differences so much more without cream or sugar! The Mt Hagen was so good! Glad you enjoyed the video 🤗

Black Rifle Coffee Co makes some really great coffee! The Freedom roast is my favorite one that I've tried so far.

@devinbraun1852 3 года назад

This was priceless and entertaining. Yeah, instant generally sucks; for emergency use only. Generally drink cold while backpacking and not wanting to take the time in the AM to fire up the stove to boil water (my face puckers just thinking about it). I was surprised you didn’t include Nescafé, it’s bearable once you’re used to it. I lived in SE Europe for a few years and coffee was either the most amazing cappuccino and espresso you’ve ever had... or Nescafé instant.

Trader Joe’s Instant Espresso is in a jar but could easily be transferred to a hike/camp friendly container. Love it! And they will sample it for you at any TJ’s before you buy. Just ask at their sample counter! Folgers came out with a Folgers Noir Golden Dusk medium-dark instant (in a black box) that is good as well. I like it better than their original. Great video! Love the comments! I’ve got some new camping coffees to sample. 😃

When car camping, I use a (stainless steel) coffee press, and I keep half-and-half in the cooler. When backpacking, I use instant, with individual ultra-pasteurized half-and-half (Mini Moo's). With the instant coffee, it's worth experimenting (brand, roast, water-to-coffee ratio, etc.) to find what you like the best. One of the guys I've backpacked with would use twice as much water (or half as much instant coffee) as the package recommended, but that worked for him.

@aw8674 2 года назад

This was a fun video. The kicker about taste tests is no matter whether instand, perk, drip or whatever eise is people have different "tastes" whether it's coffee or vegetables. Since I was a toddler I liked turnip greens and not many other kids would tolerate that taste. The best one to ask is yourself with your tongue.

I normally take ground coffee, filters, and a collapsible pour over. I only take instant coffee if I'm on a longer hike and I'm really trying to save some weight/bulk in my pack. I've tried the Starbucks Via, but not the flavor that you had. I don't enjoy instant coffee, so I usually try to make it a mocha type drink instead! I've never enjoyed an instant coffee enough to drink it by itself. A friend of mine takes Vietnamese instant coffee packets, which I think I'll try next!

@amanda.outside 3 года назад

The pour over is my go-to method of making coffee at home and while camping. I was an instant coffee skeptic until I did this taste test, but I really did enjoy the Mount Hagen and Cafe Bustelo, so I think I'll be making instant coffee more often now!

My favorites are Medaglia D’oro and Hagen (never had Bustelo). I think all the instants seem on the more earthy/acid side. Not sure why that is, but I had thought that sweet vs earthy/acid due to wear they were grown (volcanic, Central American, Mexican) are sweeter/milder.
