Used to buy the Kenco Millicano all the time, but the price has early doubled over the 18 month's. We now buy Aldi's Gold Roast 200g.

I'm not a big coffee drinker but I have bought the Sainsbury Gold Roast for years its very good £3 for a 200 gram Jar . That 83p one from Asda is perfect to give the in laws when they call just put it in a Nescafe jar and they won't know the difference 👍👍👍👍👍👍

Funny, my morning routine is just the same - water first then coffee - the only one of the day! I have decaff because the 'normal' stuff gives me headaches! I only use cheap coffee and I know it's not the same as Kenco, but economy is very important! One reason I really love this channel!

I think with most things is to give the cheaper varieties a go,if not impressed you can go back to the original. As for coffee after trial and error I found we liked Kenco Instant Rich Blend best (people actually asked what coffee we used). Sometimes though I may mix the more expensive Kenco with a jar of cheaper coffee. This bulks out the coffee but does not have too much of an impact on the flavour! I have used this idea on several things just to keep cost down.

The key to a great instant coffee is to boil the milk first, then preheat a cup with boiling water, add a small amount of boiling water to 1.5 teaspoons of coffee/brown sugar, pour the milk 70/30 ratio.

I must say, I’m choosy about coffee and can’t drink, what we call at work “Happy shopper shit” but the days of buying Azera (which is my favourite) are at an end - it never goes on offer anymore and it’s £5.00+ for a tiny tin. What I do now is go to Home Bargains or B&M and get a jar of Douwe Egberts - it’s about £5.50 at the moment but it’s a huge jar that lasts a good while and you can actually taste the coffee - a decent compromise in these dark times.

The roast conditions determine the colour. Hotter = darker. Not the only factor in the roasting process but the main one. I prefer a lighter roast; a shame to burn the lighter aromatics.

It's always worth trying out other brands because companies source base ingredients for cost and often the flavour changes due to this going on so much more these days. I don't know what happened to my favourite Douwe Egbert this year but it always tastes like floor sweepings. I started trying out different ground coffees but haven't found one that isn't either too bitter or too flavourless i will be experimenting with the Lavazza next, so thank you that. I finally bought Kenco Millicano and love it. You can buy 6 tins for £18 so that cuts the price a fair bit. I will get some Asda Essentials, try it out and and pop a couple in my stores for when coffee is more expensive than gold!!! I sound like Goldilocks here...lol!

Well folks… I’m a tea guy… have a coffee now and then… but… I highly recommend getting a water filter for your tap water as other than your kettle or coffee maker not being scaled up and lasting a lot longer if you’re in a hard water area… it takes out the horrible things that are added to the water supply (it don’t matter where you live with either hard or soft water…they still add some nasty tasting stuff to the water…so called cleaning and purifying agents)…you brew will taste much nicer for filtering your water first!! However…. After you start filtering the water…you may notice swelling of your body, feet and legs mainly…don’t worry though…it’s just your body flushing out the crap from from unfiltered tap water… it goes away and you’ll be back to normal after a few weeks…I think it’s referred to as a little known phenomenon called ‘non-toxic shock’… I feel much better for it too! Anyway, enough rambling… have a brilliant day everyone! 👍😁

You ought to store your coffee beans or grounds in an air tight container! Keeps it much better than in the packet with a peg holding it shut. Ikea do decent jars, that’s what I use for my beans.

People always compare nasty coffee to gravy granules. What kind of gravy are you using that's bitter and muddy?

I can't get red mountain for £1 now, so I've switched to Lyons instant coffee, green lid, on sale in Iceland for £1.50

I remember a few years back (mid 2000s??) , I used to get a 100g plastic bag of basic instant coffee from Sainsbury's for 50P and it was LOVELY, just like Nescafe! They stopped making it and then just put them in large 200g jars and the price shot right up..!

Hi Gareth. Yes the cheaper coffee's can be just as good as the expensive. I found our supermarket Coles fair trade coffee very nice. I like a Lavazza or a Vitoria for my heart starter each morning. Another fine comparison review today Gareth. Cheers 👍🤤😀

I buy M&S Italian 200 grams for £5.25 nice drink and double the quantality of your Kenco. Cheap coffee well its ok especially if you stick a good glug of Whiskey Brandy or Rum in it topped up with Double Cream. Perfect for the figure and warms you up lol. Our Nespresso is Expensive to much of a Faff and turning into a pain hanging around the kitchen taking up space. Your filter machine far better value and better choice of Coffees around.

As a confirmed tea drinker this jar of coffee is ideal for guests who occasionally pop in. I don't mind providing something I'll never drink myself but price point is so important when you can easily spend over a fiver on a jar.

My mother-in-law has terrible tea , so when we go to visit I always put a few tea bags in my pocket.. Last time we visited my wife's grandmother was in the front room .. so I went to the kitchen to make the tea ...I use PG for me & the wife and the mother in laws her own tea bag for her .... but the grandmother I thought use the PG tea in her cup ... In the front room the grandmother said ..this tea is nice it's not the normal tea....😅
