Origins
Robusta is far more widely grown by Indian farmers than arabica, so it's clear that they achieve masterful results, and robusta from India is one of the most sought-after. Legend has it that the saint Baba Budan brought coffee to the country from Yemen. That was around 1670. He hid 7 precious coffee beans in his beard.
Interestingly, until the 2nd half of the 18th century, Indians cultivated coffee trees more as a decoration rather than export plants. It was only with the arrival of the British that the first commercial plantations were planted. Still, it is a long way from coffee cherries to a bag of instant coffee. Indian coffee farmers most often process coffee using the so-called wet method, which means that they remove the skins and pulp from the fruit of the coffee tree in water – by pressing it through crushing plates. The loosened green beans are then poured into fermentation tanks, where they are left to ferment for several hours. During this natural process, the residual mucilage coating the coffee is dissolved. Then comes the drying process, either in direct sunlight or in dryers.
When instant coffee producers first get their hands on Indian robusta, they must process it properly. The next step is to grind it and prepare a very concentrated brew. After they filter it, they spray it into the air in a high-temperature environment, where the tiny droplets dry immediately and form fine granules.
The "inventor" of instant coffee has long been disputed. It may have been first produced in Japan in the early 20th century, but it did not come to the attention of consumers until World War II when it was supplied to American soldiers.
