Thumbs down instant coffee

i think i'm getting ripped off....here....

this stuff isn't instant at all....

you have to heat the water
and stir in creamer
add sugar...

takes about two and a half minutes...


instant my a$$.... takes forever...

I would rather boil the water than have to fill the carafe, put coffee in the strainer and dump the water in....that is more work! I drink instant at home and I like it! In fact I prefer it as drip coffee gives me the....shall we say....craps?

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

I use a 4-cup Farberware percolator...takes about 5 minutes. I don't care for drip coffee very much.

I drink instant Maxwell house all day. I use one of those little plug-in hotpots at the shop and it's boiling in under a minute.

well since you mentioned it....you start to wonder about that last
little piece of un-melted instant coffee that floats on the surface...
resisting melt-down... and suddenly you imagine the worst
and think perhaps it's half of a mouse turd...and you stir again

thinking why won't you melt.....you %$%$%$%$en lil bastid

until your almost freakin out....

eff DrunkinDronuts anymore Larry. Sick of their piss poor attitude and service. Not to mention $2.07 for a cup of filtered mud. I feel like I'm doing them a service when I go there now.

I would rather drink battery acid like bigcat said...so I do

Hotpot actually works pretty good. I use it for oatmeal too.
