How can I stop the foam from forming on the top when I make a cup of instant coffee?

By admin

I don’t drink instant coffee much but when I do every time I add the spoon full of coffee a light colored foam forms on the top. I scoop it off 3 or 4 times then the coffee looks black as it should. Any ideas on how to stop this?

Don’t drink instant coffee, it’s horrible stuff! There are many single-cup coffee makers that use real coffee and make a much much better cup.

Salim sez, "Professor Mark Miodownik of Kings College Materials Research Group teaches us how to process raw beans to a perfect cup of coffee using every day using a collection of household & DIY implements." This was amazing — I’ve always wondered about the chemistry of espresso and coffee roasting — I’ve become a total coffee bore since I got serious about my home apparatus, and this has armed me with many useful factoids for understanding the imperfections in the shots I pull. Also, he uses Monmouth beans, which are all we use at home. They are superb. Dr Mark Miodownik - How to Make The Perfect Cup Of Coffee (Thanks, Salim!)
