I saw that you mentioned a low acid concentrate of "coffee" that can be mixed with just water...meaning like an instant coffee that I could take with me somewhere (like to a restaurant) and then just ask for some hot water? I have given up my coffee and I now drink Soyfee, but I am really cranky when I am out and smell the real thing. I especially like to have a cup after a dinner out so is this something that you could take with you (say in your purse already premeasured for one cup)? Please let me know more info. Thanks.
I did mention a couple of quick and easy ways to prepare just one cup of coffee. One is using a 3-cup (12-oz. mug size) French press, and RocaMojo Soy "coffee." (It's available at here). To find the French press that I use, search Amazon with "Bonjour petite French press," or just "Bonjour petite." It would be simple to take the "coffee" to a "break" kitchen at school or work, if there is one, and fix a mug of "coffee," using available hot water. But not every place will have all that.
The other method is to use the same half-coffee, half-soy RocaMojo grind (or Revival Soy has one "Breakfast Blend" mix of soy and coffee), and use it with a toddy maker. (Search Amazon, again, using "toddy maker." Read the first two results that you get, for a description of how a toddy is made, from real coffee or half-coffee, half-soy==or even soy coffee. It comes out, as I understand it, as a concentrated coffee liquid, that is stored in the refrigerator. You make a cup at a time by measuring one-quarter toddy liquid to three-quarters water, and heating in a microwave.
Making the toddy liquid is a do-it-once-for-many-servings task you can do at home.
Although you don't have a powder you can take with you, certainly you could carry the toddy base for a cup of coffee with you in a thermos, or small bottle. Just add hot water, as you and I used to do with instant coffee.
I looked at both French press and toddy maker, and chose the French press, because it fits my situation. Now that I have it, I love it. There is no real difference in time to fix a mug of half-aoy, half-coffee, compared to instant coffee--unless you used to put ice cubes in your instant coffee to cool it off. Even so, while the French press is brewing your coffee, you can put your mug in the freezer, and come pretty close to instant coffee - at home, that is.
For going out and about with coffee drinkers, the toddy maker would supply something you can use. It's too bad that the RocaMojo, and/or any other soy/coffee blend, is not an instant powder.
