Instant coffee

The first attempts to create instant coffee were made over 130 years ago ?

The first attempts to create instant coffee were made in 1890 by New Zealander David Strang.
And at the beginning of the twentieth century, the Englishman George Constant Washington even tried to establish the mass production of such a drink.

But, the real "coffee revolution" was made in the thirties of the last century by the technologist of the company "Nestle" Max Morgenthaler.
The reason for this was the plight of Brazilian coffee planters.
Brazil's bumper coffee harvest meant that product prices plummeted and there was nowhere to sell it.
And it was difficult to store coffee beans for a long time.

Then in the company "Nestle" its employee Max Morgenthaler was engaged in this, purchasing coffee beans at his own expense.
Two years passed, and Morgenthaler's work was crowned with success: on April 1, 1938, an unusual drink called "Neskafe" went on the mass market.
