For some reason I think of it as an older concept. Now Starbucks and coffee chains are popular.

Highlighting carlcook’s advice:

dissolve in cold water, ONLY THEN add hot water. The rationale behind it is that aromatics evaporate too quickly when the instant powder is infused with too/boiling hot water.

    Vacuum insulated hot drink containers are a thing, and work very well. That’s what field workers use. Who has time or a device to boil water?

    Every coffee vending machine I have ever used ground the coffee while you wait. Cappuccino machines are definitely a mix, though.
