If you violate the technology of storing coffee, then do not be surprised that the freshly brewed drink does not live up to your expectations.
Expert of the online publication BelNovosti, chef Yulia Arkhipova shared useful recommendations related to storing this product.
The most important thing is to pour the instant coffee granules from the factory packaging into a container made of dark glass.
Opaque ceramics will also work.
This must be done immediately after purchase.
The can of coffee needs to be taken to any place, the main thing is that it is dry and cool.
This condition must be observed in order to preserve the crumbly texture of the coffee. By the way, for the same reason, you should not take coffee with a wet spoon - measure out the required amount of granules using a dry cutlery.
As for ground coffee, it is best stored in a tin or glass jar with a tightly closed lid.
The same recommendation applies to coffee beans.
Otherwise, the requirements are the same as for instant coffee – the storage place should be dark, dry and cool.
If we talk about the benefits of coffee, then the most useful is considered to be the one that has not been subjected to any processing. That is, the instant drink is always lower in the rating than the "whole" one.
However, it cannot be said that the instant version is devoid of any advantages: for example, it has less caffeine and no cafestol at all, which causes atherosclerosis.
