Hey, cool, I use some of those! Not the coffee: wtf is with instant coffee? Do most people really still use that when a basic drip machine is so cheap and ubiquitous.
And the Jimmy Dean “Hot” is usually better tasting, unless you have someone who needs the mild
That's not instant, those are tubs of pre-ground coffee.
I'd take instant over those brands made in a drip machine though.
What brands would you buy? I’m looking to branch out
I don't have a specific brand recommendation, but if you want to absolutely max out your coffee experience, try to find a local roaster or coffee shop that stocks freshly roasted whole beans. Most places like that will offer to grind beans for you too, if you don't have your own grinder at home.
The main problem with those giant pre-ground tubs is that they're almost certainly stale. The longer coffee sits, the more it loses flavor, or develops off-flavors, and pre-round coffee stales even quicker than whole beans. So if you can't find anything locally roasted near you, look for whole beans with a roast date somewhere on the package, ideally within the last two weeks or so.
Edit: typo
Drip coffee takes too long and most people are too lazy/dumb to figure out how to schedule the coffee machine (if their machine even has that feature at all).
To maximize my sleep, I give myself a 15 minute window to get up and get to work. I don't drink coffee, but if I did, I'd go with instant. Just heat up the water and stir in the coffee mix. Takes less than 2 minutes.
Add another 30 seconds and you could have had Aeropress.
I have to admit to k-cups. Horribly wasteful with the packaging but oh so convenient and much better than instant
I save my good coffee for the weekends when I can slow down and enjoy the process rather than impatiently wait
That’s why I used to do, but I was given a reusable K-Cup filter thing that just holds ground beans and is washable/reusable. All of the benefits of quick coffee and none of the waste!
