How to quickly check the quality of instant coffee

To check the quality of instant coffee, you need to fill it with water and watch the sediment. A good drink does not leave lumps at the bottom.

In order not to be disappointed in instant coffee once again, Nina Zaitseva, a specialist in the Product Quality Inspection (MosGik), described the correct method for Doctorpiter.

"If precipitation forms at the bottom when coffee is dissolved in cold water, this indicates a violation of production technology or the addition of ground additives, such as chicory, roasted grains, and therefore low-quality coffee," the expert said.

Zaitseva also added that good coffee should dissolve in both cold and hot water. So that it does not lose its taste and smell as a result of storage, it should be kept with an airtight lid in a dry place.
