How the fuck do I make instant coffee not taste like shit /ck/? Being a poor collage student I can't afford to buy one of those coffee equipment so I'm stuck with instant coffee.
>>
>>8622205
Coffee equipment? A mr. coffee is like less than 20 dollars isn't it?
>>
nigger, if you can't even spell college correctly then you are fucked for the rest of your life. kill yourself now and save yourself the pain.
>>
>>8622218
I honestly did not notice the typo
>>
>>8622205
>collage

Also get a mr coffee its 20$
>>
>>8622205
used espresso machines are like 10 bucks on ebay,theres no way to make instant taste good
>>
buy the best instant coffee you can.. it's not really by name or price as much as country of origin.. one of the cheapest ones you can get where i live is made in germany and it's pretty yum
>>
>>8622205
Mixing in some ground spices like cinnamon and nutmeg can help mask the taste when combined with milk and possibly sugar

You probably already know what spices you like, but 'pumpkin pie spice' and 'chai spice' are good places to start, just decide on your own proportions of the constituent parts.
>>
It's an acquired taste. Drink it every morning and you'll grow to love it.

Folgers man here
>>
>>8622209
Yeah, walmart has them for cheap.
>>
>>8622205

COLLEGE not collage. Jesus.

Buy a fucking Melitta drip filter cone and a carafe. Get some filters. Get some coffee. You're all set.

Just steal a french press and some grounds from your local supermarket
>>
>>8622329
Seriously order a French press from a coffeeshop, drink it out on the patio, and put it in your bag on the sly. Or you know find $20 to buy one
>>
>>8622310
He never made that implication.
>>
>>8622229
because spellcheck didn't flag it. nigga, learn to proofread
>>
>>8622344
Do they bring the French Press to you? I figured they'd pour it into a carafe. I do that at home since I don't want to oversteep my coffee
>>
Buy a French press
If even that's too much, use a sock
>>
>>8622977

You can just boil water in a pot and add in grounds. Strain the pot and have black coffee. This isn't hard
>>
A french press is like $6 at wally world.
>>
>>8622205
Get a moka pot, it's like 8-15 bucks.

Okay, you can buy bags pre-ground beans for what $5? (Not sure I'm from the UK)

>Buy one of these bags.
>Buy any cheap pot/jug (Or if you're like me find somethng nice from a thrift store to make the ceremony more enjoyable).
>Buy cheap plastic fine holed sieve (or metal is fine too).
>Place coffee in jug (2-3 tablespoons is good for a nice strong taste and crema)
>Place off the boil water over coffee and stir a few times. Let it rest for a minute or two.
>Pour through sieve directly into mug,

Honestly, I was shown this method by a friend who really likes this coffee, and it's a cheap, simple way to get a great coffee. Beats instant, beats a coffee made with a £500 machine . I get so mad when I see someone with a fucking Nespresso.

>>8623243
Just realised you said this already. This guy gets it.
>>
>>8622205
What shit hole third world country did you crawl out of?
When I was in college, I bought a cheap coffee maker for like 30 bucks.
>>
Get some premade stuff, it tastes alright and is pretty cheap.
>>
>>8622205
use some fucking flavored creamer, it literally enhances flavors x20
>>
>>8622205
>Instant coffee
>Not shit

Choose one
>>
>>8622205
make sure you're using decent instant coffee at least, Nescafe is prime shit
>>
>>8622205
cold brew, mix it with some real ground coffee if you can get your hands on some and cold brew that too, start with warm water and let it out over night, then fridge, it lasts forever and makes it extract only the sweet flavours.
>>
You're spending more money on instant coffee than if you just bought a literally $8 Rival coffee maker from walmart and then bought big ass cans of $7 coffee, dummy. I have been using one for years.

You do realize that coffee makers are relatively simple machines that can be found at almost free prices and you don't need a meme Keurig, right?
>>
>>8622205
- arabica, always.
- brown sugar
- if you can't drink your tap water, coffee won't save it.
- it will never taste like a normal brew, so drop that expectation and enjoy it for what it is.
>>
Making real coffee doesn't take that long, just do it right.

Maybe he's from one of those places were the capsule coffee market killed real coffee to the point smaller places don't even carry regular ground coffee anymore.

OP, I'm a uni student in the UK, just get a caffetierre or an aeropress, and buy preground, vacuum/protective atmosphere sealed coffee. It'll last a week per pack and cost around £2.50, which is substantially cheaper than coffee shops and doesn't taste revolting, unlike instant coffee.

>spends more on instant coffee in two months than it would cost to buy a cheap drip coffee machine

Ok, here's some instructions

1. Donate plasma
2. receive $15 gift card
3. repeat three days later
4. Go to walmart/target/wherever
5. Buy machine, filters, coffee.

So I guess college really is dumbing down the population. Way to go Dept of Ed.
