Instant Coffee vs. Coffee Pods: Which is More Cost-Effective?

Instant Coffee vs. Coffee Pods: Which is More Cost-Effective?

3 minute read

When it comes to convenience in the morning, there are few options that can compete with instant coffee and coffee pods. Both offer a quick and easy way to get your caffeine fix, but which one is more cost-effective in the long run?

First, let's take a look at the cost of instant. A pouch of instant coffee can range anywhere from $5 to $25, depending on the brand and size. A serving of instant coffee is typically around 2 teaspoons, make up to 60 servings. That comes out to about $0.08 to $0.46 per serving.

Now, let's compare that to coffee pods. A box of coffee pods can range from $10 to $20, with each box containing anywhere from 10 to 24 pods. A serving of coffee from a pod is typically around 8 ounces, so a box of coffee pods can make anywhere from 10 to 24 servings. That comes out to $1 to $2 per serving.

On the surface, it may seem like coffee pods are the more cost-effective option, but there are a few things to consider before making your decision.

First, let's talk about sustainability. Coffee pods are notoriously bad for the environment. They are made of plastic and are not easily recyclable. This means that they end up in landfills, where they can take hundreds of years to decompose. On the other hand, instant coffee comes in a jar or a packet, both of which can be recycled or reused. And when you choose a sustainable brand like House of Word Coffee, you can feel good knowing that your coffee is not only better for the environment, but also for the farmers and the community.

Second, let's talk about taste. While both instant coffee and coffee pods can be delicious, there's no denying that instant coffee has a bit of a bad reputation when it comes to taste. But with House of Word Coffee, you can enjoy a delicious, high-quality instant coffee  that is made with the finest beans and the most advanced technology. Our instant coffee is specially crafted to deliver a rich, full-bodied flavor that is comparable to freshly brewed coffee.

In conclusion, when it comes to instant coffee vs. coffee pods, the decision ultimately comes down to cost-effectiveness, sustainability, and taste. And when you choose House of Word Coffee, you can be sure that you're getting a product that is both cost-effective and sustainable, and that also delivers a delicious taste. So, next time you're trying to decide between instant coffee and coffee pods, remember that instant coffee may be the better option. Not only is it more sustainable, but it's also more delicious and cost-effective.
