What reviewers say

Jacobs Kronung Instant Coffee Sticks 50ct

Reception is thin: one buyer on the listing rated it 5 stars. Kronung is a long-standing German favorite, and instant versions are generally liked for convenience rather than depth.

Pros
  • Convenient single-serve format
  • Smooth, balanced medium roast
  • Good for iced coffee
Cons
  • Less body than brewed coffee
  • Some find instant versions sweeter and weaker than the filter original

Jacobs Krönung Signature Instant Coffee

Buyers of this imported European instant describe it as one of the better instant coffees, with a fruity, nutty aroma some call "the magic aroma." Many say they stopped buying coffee shop cups and keep it as a daily habit, a favorite of German family members.

Pros
  • Tastes very good for an instant

Questions and answers

Which is better for travel?
The sticks. Each one is sealed and pre-measured, so you just add hot water. The jar is bulkier and needs a spoon.
Which is cheaper per cup?
The jar, in almost every case. Loose powder gives about 45 to 55 cups per 100 g, while the box gives exactly 50 and you pay for individual wrapping.
Do they taste the same?
Both are Jacobs Kronung instant with an Arabica and Robusta blend and the same fruity, nutty, caramel aroma. The jar is listed as dark roast, so it may taste slightly stronger.
How much caffeine is in a cup?
Both are regular, caffeinated instant coffee. A typical cup has roughly 60 to 80 mg, less than a brewed coffee.
Is either one sweetened?
No. Both are unsweetened, so add sugar or milk yourself.
Can I make iced coffee with either?
Yes. Dissolve in a small amount of hot water first, then pour over ice. A stick makes this easy to portion.
