There are a lot of different types of coffee. It can be tricky when two types of coffee look nearly identical. Instant coffee and ground coffee both look like ground-up coffee beans, so how are you supposed to tell the difference between them? Ground coffee is simply coffee beans that have been ground into a fine enough texture to brew. On the other hand, instant coffee is coffee that has been brewed, concentrated, freeze-dried, and ground into a usable powder. Instead of brewing it again, you add it to hot water to rehydrate it. So what are the benefits of instant coffee? How is it made? Does it taste as good as freshly-brewed coffee? These topics and more are covered in the rest of this article.

There are so many types of coffee available today that it’s difficult to know how much caffeine each of these coffees contains. It’s more important to know, especially those who have underlying health conditions or have trouble sleeping. A rough guide on how much caffeine is in a particular roast is to look at how light, dark, or how much oil the bean contains. Dark roasts have a relatively low caffeine content because the beans are roasted longer. Blonde roasts have a higher caffeine content because the beans are roasted for less time. The color of a bean is not the only difference between blonde roasts and dark roasts. There are also levels of roasting that fall in between the two accepted extremes.
