Honestly, the second millennium is more than twenty-one this year, maybe someone underestimates this one coffee. Maybe so often, or maybe because the era is starting to change, contributing to our view of coffee as well as its derivative products. If you think back before the coffee beans spread and “grind yourself” come on… Instant coffee comes regardless of time and place, even at the top of a mountain, which warms friends looking at the wide sky, instant coffee is very useful, even until now.
Even more than two centuries ago, instant coffee was already brewed when war was still raging in America and Europe. The earliest version of instant coffee is said to have been invented around 1771 in England. The first American product was developed in 1853, and an experimental version (in cake form) was field-tested during the Civil War. In 1890, David Strang of Invercargill, New Zealand invented and patented instant coffee. In 1901, the first successful technique for making a stable powder product was discovered in Japan by Sartori Kato, who used the process he had developed to make instant tea.
It was first mass-produced in America around 1910 by George Constant Louis Washington (not associated with President Washington). He accomplished great feats and obtained patents, but instant coffee grounds were considered by most to be something new with an unpleasant taste. Around 1938, Nescafe became the most popular brand; By co-drying the coffee extracts along with the same amount of soluble carbohydrates they enhance the taste. Today, the best process for preserving flavor is freeze-drying, which emerged around the 1960s.
What are your assumptions about? Honestly, I’m curious about my friends’ views on ready-to-brewed coffee without pork. Happy brewing!
