Instant Coffee Comes in Various Flavors, So Why Do We Still Choose to Brew Our Own?

Is It Still Necessary to Brew Your Own Coffee When There Are Already Various Flavored Instant Coffee Products?

Here are the results from our discussion - see if you agree?

Of Course It's Necessary... You Can Adjust the Strength to Your Preference

If you don't find instant coffee too weak, that's great. The recommended coffee brewing ratio is 1:12 (stronger) to 1:15 (weaker). Unless you have extremely sensitive taste buds, drinking coffee weaker than a 1 (bean weight):15 (water weight) ratio, for most of us ordinary people, feels more like drinking coffee-flavored water.

Of Course It's Necessary... Brewing Your Own Allows You to Experience 100% Single-Origin Coffee, and There Are Many Famous Regions and Micro-regions to Explore

Long, long ago, foreign coffee merchants had similar practices. For example, Hawaiian Kona beans are very expensive (expensive due to labor costs and domestic American wage standards). By adding a certain proportion of Kona beans to whole bags of blended beans, they can label it as "Kona-flavored coffee beans." A famous canned coffee in Taiwan also has "Blue Mountain-style" coffee.

Of Course It's Necessary... When Brewing Your Own, You Can Choose Any Roast Level

Although there are different coffee flavors available, we also want to experience the flavor changes of the same bean at different roast levels to truly taste the excellent genetics of the original beans as well as their good growing and processing environment. However, if you're really interested in the rich caramel and chocolate notes of darker roasted beans, or need them to make lattes, we can also meet your needs.

Of Course It's Necessary... Freshness Has a Huge Impact on Coffee Flavor

FrontStreet Coffee beans are roasted to order, guaranteeing freshness. We only send you freshly roasted beans. The coffee bag labels always indicate the roasting date - no tricks, no deception.

Honestly, not caring about whether coffee is fresh when drinking it is truly baffling. Food is something we put into our bodies, so why would we spend money on stale (expired) food?
