For some reason I think of it as an older concept. Now Starbucks and coffee chains are popular.

Highlighting carlcook's advice:

dissolve in cold water, ONLY THEN add hot water. The rationale behind it is that aromatics evaporate too quickly when the instant powder is infused with too/boiling hot water.

Huh, I've only used espresso powder for that, not instant coffee.

    Espresso powder definitely has a better coffee flavor and I'd use that if allowed but instant still works well for quick work and light flavors. Always have some on hand for camping :)
