Instant Espresso vs. Instant Coffee?

Question

Has anyone tried either - which tastes better? What is the difference?

Answer 1

Instant is instant and isnt like freshly brewed having said that Espresso has a full bodied (stronger) taste as opposed to general instant coffee.

Answer 2

In a pinch, the Folgers crystals is rich but the Instant Yuban a bit mellower.

I like the instant espresso with 1/2 & 1/2 and a little vanilla extract.

I'd much rather blow out a Double Breve on my la San Marcos double head espresso maker though.

Answer 3

Esspresso is a lot stronger. Instant coffee is well instant, not like fresh gruond coffee you grind.

And the instant coffee is a lot softer then espresso.
