Big thank you to the good folks @Luminous Coffee. They have worked incredibly hard to formulate their own unique and innovative process for producing instant coffee, none of this would have been possible without their expertise and attention to detail.

THE PROCESS

Now, a bit of insight into the instant process from the team @Luminous:

Many know that instant coffee is commonly made using two methods: spray drying and freeze drying. We choose freeze drying, which involves sublimation, vacuum, heat, and time. Firstly, no other company brews concentrate like we do. By using a cold chain technique throughout the entire process—from grinding and brewing to storage—we keep everything cold and freeze our trays as quickly as possible before the freeze drying process begins. The biggest enemy of instant coffee is the loss of volatiles, so we make sure to grind and brew cold to capture all the sweetness and acidity. We also incorporate extra preparation steps to ensure our outcome is 100% repeatable, achieving 25%-28% extractions using less physical coffee weight than any other competitors. We meticulously dial in our freeze drying batches for specific lots, ensuring we are not adding unwanted heat and maintaining maximum efficiency without loss of time. Think of instant coffee like roasting—every variable matters. Next up is our post-process. As you can see, we believe that having a thoughtfully designed product matters. That’s why our instant coffee looks like dust. Most companies simply scrape up the product and call it a day, but by making our particles smaller, we enhance the experience by keeping every packet consistent. Many aspects go into our instant coffee that most would overlook.
