Q: If a recipe calls for this can you use it as in making cookies/Brownies

submitted by Kawasaki - 6 years ago
  • A: Great question! Instant coffee can be used in some recipes. We encourage you to visit our website for recipes that have been tested specifically with our Espresso Dark Roast Instant Coffee.

  • A: I do use it in baking. I put a tablespoon instant coffee in a glass pyrex measure cup and add a tablespoon of boiling water. It's like a strong coffee syrup. Then add the rest of the oil or liquid with it to make the measure in the recipe. It's better to use it as a liquid in recipes than just adding it to the dry ingredients.

Q: How many carbs does this have per serving

submitted by Makayla - 2 years ago
  • A: The FDA exempts coffee from nutrition labeling regulations as they consider the nutrients in the coffee you'll be consuming to be at "insignificant" amounts. Therefore, there is no nutrition panel on coffee labels. These agencies define insignificant as less than five calories per serving and less than one gram of fat, carbohydrates, dietary fiber and protein per serving, respectively.

    Best instant espresso

    One of the best instant espressos out there. I use a one to one ratio for a more rich taste and my lattes come out perfect every time!

    The Best Instant Coffee!

    I wanted to see if there was a decent instant coffee, so I tried all the major brands. I would never use any of them again except for two brands that were surprisingly good. This was one of them. (The other one is much more expensive. A single serving was almost the cost of a whole jar of Café Bustelo, so that one wasn’t going to work for me.) This is the one I recommend. It actually taste like real coffee! (FYI - the company that makes Café Bustelo also makes Pilon instant coffee. They are both the same formula and equally as good.)

    Too good to last...

    They changed it! Not only is the taste not what it used to be, now it does something strange to the back of my throat making it feel scratchy whenever I swallow the coffee. My throat was 100% fine, then I took a sip from a batch with the expiration "JAN 05 2028." Each swallow made the back of my throat feel as if I were swallowing some kind of liquid microscopic nano sand paper. Now, I know I'm super sensitive than most, so this might slip under the radar to the masses who still drink this coffee and can't tell the flavor and feel changes that I can. I am so disgusted that I have to find a new coffee after drinking Bustello Instant for sooo long. This was the only coffee I drank. And now I have to find another. I'll probably switch to an organic coffee so I don't run into this freakish problem with another brand. I am more sad than I am mad, though. I know companies sometimes feel they have to make changes they don't necessarily want to make in order to keep their prices to the customers low, and I guess I can appreciate that, as times are tough on us all. But this was a terrible move, Bustello. Other batch information on the package: JAN 05 2028 6005519 01 15:11

    I was excited to try this, but was disappointed from the moment I opened the jar. It doesn’t even smell like coffee-it has an odd chemical smell. The taste was similarly odd-there was not even a hint of coffee/espresso taste. I’ll be returning it today.

    It's been ruined! It's undrinkable now!

    I drank this product for about a year now. It was excellent; I couldn't believe an instant coffee was so good. The latest jar, however, is nothing short of disgusting. It has a petroleum taste to it. Its use-by date is 28 Sep 2027. Its batch info is 5272 680 10:04 #L-1 . The jar has a foil seal rather than the paper one the jars have had before. I give this data because I have already given it to the company, but they have not e-mailed me back. Perhaps they have failed to because I refused to give them my phone number or street address, perhaps because the change is intentional. In either case, I think the customers ought to know. And now I am back on the trail of a decent, easy-to-prepare, inexpensive coffee. It's very sad to have lost this one. Not only have I enjoyed it, but I've been boosting it to others. Please, please, please return it to what it was!

    I got a notice from Target for buy one get one on this coffee. I drove 30 minutes in to pick up, they would not honor the offer, and had charged me full price for one. I promptly returned it and will never respond to one of Targets offers again.

    I always use Cafe Bustelo for a café cubano or espresso, which I learned how to make from my adopted Aba Lita a long time ago. I'm really happy they came out with instant for ice coffee in the summer.
