which do you prefer? mostly all filipinos dont have any coffee maker so i presumed mostly all of us like our coffee instant. instant like 3in1 (means combination of coffee sugar and creamer) 2in1 (coffee and sugar) ., we also have different taste and packaging... some with vanilla, stong, mild, sweet, and many more thats what you see on our instant coffee packages. but what do you like best? me? as long as its coffee... then im in!

I think that making your own freshly brewed coffee at home from scratch is worth the little extra effort it takes.. you can make it simply in a coffee press jug,or go all the way with some high tech espresso gadget..either way,I think the flavour you get is much better than instant,and the number of varieties available from around the world can make for interesting comparison

I have it good at work-We have a coffee filter machine there available all day,so fresh brewed coffee is always there for the pouring when we get time for a break! There are some who work with Me who either don't like the strength or the taste of the blend We use,and they'll pass on the ready to pour brew,and make their own instant or decaf instead..

I am from China. The coffee is not our main drink. I personally think that the instant coffee will be good enough for me. It is easy to make and it tastes well in my opinion. As to the brewed coffee, I think it's too troublesome for me to make at home.
I love China

maybe if we could get used to the fact of making brewed coffee then it could not be that bad, i think. because some people are used to doing it. specially if you have a coffee maker, then it could really be that simple to make. but when i am at the office i rather have the instant coffee. thanks my friend!

Hi jhe, you know all the people nowadays are busy making money or doing other essential business all the time. 
seldom people are willing to brew their own coffee anymore. For the sake of time saving we usually would get the 3 in 1 type of coffee sticks. Yeah, it’s handy and convenient to prepare such beverage. We just have to spend a few minutes, a cup of hot aromatic is ready to entertain our appetite.
We would like to brew the coffee only if we have considerable leisure time like during holidays. I agree that the coffee brewed is more fragrant for we always prepare it according to our taste.
Happy posting
