Frequently Asked Questions About Nescafe Matinal
What is Nescafe Matinal?
Nescafe Matinal is a processed, soluble instant coffee made to dissolve in water. It is a coffee product rather than a ready-to-drink beverage, so you prepare each cup by mixing the granules with water or milk.
How do you make Nescafe Matinal?
Stir Nescafe Matinal into hot water until it dissolves. Adjust the amount to make the cup stronger or milder, then add milk or sweetener if you like; it does not need brewing or a coffee machine.
Does Nescafe Matinal contain caffeine?
Yes, Nescafe Matinal contains caffeine and is not a decaffeinated coffee. The amount in a cup depends on how much instant coffee you use, so people sensitive to caffeine may prefer to avoid it later in the day.
Is Nescafe Matinal decaf?
No, Nescafe Matinal is not decaffeinated; it is a regular soluble coffee that contains caffeine. Look for a product explicitly labelled decaffeinated if you want to avoid most of the caffeine.
Does Nescafe Matinal have sugar in it?
Plain Nescafe Matinal is soluble coffee, not a sweetened coffee mix, so it does not need added sugar to dissolve. Sugar, syrup, or sweetened milk added when making a drink will change its sugar content.
What does Nescafe Matinal taste like?
Nescafe Matinal is generally presented as a smooth, approachable instant coffee. How strong or bitter it tastes depends on how much you use and what you mix it with; adding more granules makes the cup more intense.
Can you use Nescafe Matinal to make iced coffee?
Yes, Nescafe Matinal works well for iced coffee because it dissolves quickly. Dissolve it first in a small splash of warm water, then add cold milk or water and ice to avoid undissolved granules.
How is Nescafe Matinal different from brewed coffee?
Nescafe Matinal is instant coffee: it dissolves directly in the cup, while brewed coffee is made by passing water through ground beans. Instant coffee is quicker to prepare and does not leave grounds to filter or discard.
How should you store Nescafe Matinal after opening?
Keep Nescafe Matinal tightly closed in a cool, dry place after opening. Moisture can make the granules clump and weaken their aroma, so use a dry spoon and keep the jar away from steam and damp countertops.
Can you drink Nescafe Matinal before bed?
You can drink Nescafe Matinal before bed, but its caffeine may make it harder to fall asleep, particularly if you are sensitive to caffeine. Choose a caffeine-free drink or have your coffee earlier if it affects your sleep.

What is Nescafe Matinal?
Nescafe Matinal is an instant soluble coffee: add hot water to the granules and stir for a quick cup, with no grounds to brew or leave behind. It is a convenient alternative to methods such as filter coffee or espresso, especially when you want coffee without equipment.
Its flavour is roasted and mildly bitter when served black; milk or sugar can soften the taste. It fits easily into a morning routine or an afternoon coffee break, and pairs well with toast, biscuits or a small sweet. Prepared without additions, it is very low in calories, while still providing caffeine. For a lighter cup, enjoy it black or add only a little milk; adjust the strength to suit your taste.
