I'm just curious. Is the issue that the coffee has a burnt taste to it? The reason I ask is that it seems to me that instant coffee has something in common with a French press: namely pouring hot water directly over the coffee.
Years ago I tried get fancy and use a French press. The coffee just seemed to always have a burnt taste to it; so I went back to the drip method. Later on, someone suggested that I shouldn't have used water that had been at a rolling boil. They claimed that would scald the coffee grounds and give it that burnt taste. They suggested using water that was "just shy" of a boil.
Not sure if that applies to instant. But maybe worth investigating.
Here's hoping that the next cup is a good one.

True, boiling water will give coffee a burnt taste or at least, an altered taste.
Huh. Even after having seen so many American TV shows and movies, I never noticed the iced tea vs. hot tea thing. Learn a little every day.
I just had French Vanilla creamer in my coffee for the first time. I freaken loved it. I usually use milk but I was out of milk and used this. I am going to switch from now on.

We tend not to keep flavored creamer at our house; due to my wife not really caring for it all that much. But when I'm traveling, I find myself snatching up a French Vanilla or other flavors when the opportunity is there. It's nice to break out of the typical routine at times.
