Comparison between instant coffee and freshly ground coffee: the three-in-one calorie is 20 times that of ground coffee.

You can't just drink coffee quickly, conveniently and cheaply. Three-in-one coffee contains a variety of artificial additives, which has reached six-in-one and seven-in-one. You think the sugar-free two-in-one actually contains high fat and is even more unhealthy to eat. The calorie of three-in-one is 20 times that of filter-hanging ground coffee. Do you really want to drink three-in-one and two-in-one?

The convenience of three-in-one instant coffee improves the popularity of drinking coffee. According to the survey, each person drinks an average of about 120 cups of coffee per year, of which the most is three-in-one instant coffee (28%), followed by canned and ground coffee in convenience stores (21%).

But many people who drink three-in-one instant coffee don't pay much attention to quality. Because three-in-one coffee is cheaper than ground coffee, consumers demand too high quality for low-cost products, and over time, some people don't care what they drink.

1. What you think of as sugar-free coffee is actually high in fat

Per person's daily calorie intake from fat should only account for 1020% of the total calories, no more than 30% at most. When the fat-calorie ratio of a product exceeds 30%, it enters the dangerous range of high fat.

What is even more amazing is that behind the sugar-free two-in-one coffee, there is the truth of high fat. You may think that sugar-free two-in-one coffee is healthier, but the numbers can talk. Two-in-one coffee all have more than 30% fat calories, and even more than 50% of fat calories in the real pot classic sugar-free two-in-one and UCC charcoal-fired two-in-one.

Compared with filter-mounted grinded coffee, which kind of coffee you drink determines your fat intake.

two。 Convenient three-in-one, two-in-one, containing 60% 80% cream and sugar

Cream, sugar and coffee beans all have carbohydrates. Comparing the content of carbohydrates (carbohydrate density), it was found that the proportion of carbohydrates in three-in-one and two-in-one was 6-8 times different from that in filter coffee, and the difference was sugar and cream.

3. Unable to verify the quality and content of coffee

In fact, instant coffee powder, whether three-in-one or two-in-one, has the disadvantage of insufficient aroma from the very beginning. The most important thing about coffee is the aroma, but the aroma will be destroyed in the freeze-drying process of instant coffee, leaving only a bitter taste. Experts suspect that the coffee beans used to make three-in-one and two-in-one coffee may be the lowest quality beans, because in terms of price, low-cost coffee is difficult to be of both quality.

4. In addition to cream and sugar, there are starch and spices.

The biggest problem with three-in-one coffee is cream. The ingredients of most three-in-one coffee are cream, granulated sugar and instant coffee, which appear to be simple, but in fact cream contains artificial additives such as glucose syrup, hydrogenated vegetable oil, casein sodium, stabilizer, emulsifier and anti-caking agent.

Apart from the complex ingredients of cream, three-in-one coffee is actually six-in-one or even seven-in-one. Because some products also add pigments, spices, salt and so on, some add starch additives such as maltodextrin and dextrin fiber to increase the consistency of coffee.

5. How to make a good cup of coffee by yourself?

When we really don't have time and want to make three-in-one and two-in-one coffee simply and quickly, is there a smarter and healthier way to drink it? No! The experts said categorically. We don't drink it and we don't dare to drink it. after drinking ground coffee, we can't go back after we know it's good.

If you want to make your own coffee, coffee experts suggest you master the following three points.

1 choose the filter-hanging ground coffee with simple ingredients. Filter coffee is a convenient choice for people who do not have the time and equipment to make coffee. But it is best to buy the earbags made by the coffee shop, because compared with the big food companies, the coffee shop has a smaller market and less inventory, and the coffee powder will be relatively fresh, and you can check the powder for abnormal shape and smell fuel consumption before drinking it.

(2) the smart filter cup uses the follicle principle, which saves time and does not need to practice the technique. Use smart filter cups when there is no time to slowly brew coffee, similar to traditional coffee filter cups, but with a tenon at the bottom of the cup, just put filter paper, pour coffee powder, rinse hot water and stir for 1 minute, put the filter cup on the mug, and start dripping with the tenon buckle. Before and after 5 minutes, you can make 2-4 servings of coffee.

For those who are not used to black coffee, it is recommended to choose good sugar and milk and add it appropriately. It is recommended that fine rock sugar will not affect the original taste of coffee; with fructose, the taste can be very pure but the aroma can be suppressed; with granulated sugar, the taste of coffee can rise; and marshmallow can connect coffee and milk beautifully. As for milk, fresh milk is the first choice. To be healthier, experts recommend adding low-fat fresh milk.

If none of the above methods are suitable for you, and you still want to buy three-in-one or two-in-one instant coffee, it is recommended to check whether coffee is listed first on the food label on the package, and make sure there are no additives other than cream and sugar.
