Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!

Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

it's fine. and I can have it hot or cold, and using it as an ingredient in anything else is a cinch.

In the UK, instant coffee is still pretty much standard. Of course, many, many people buy 'real' coffee, but in most hotels and places of work there will be tea bags, and little packets of freeze-dried coffee. It's by far the most common option. Most cheap, independent 'greasy spoon' cafes will still serve it. Personally I think of them as different beverages. It's like a packet of ramen Vs an authentic Chinese meal. Both have their place.
