Opinions Needed: Trail Coffee

What is everyones take on Instant coffee? Is it worth it? As a backpacking resource, the lack of equipment needed and a the size of those packets is attractive…

Does anyone have any suggestions for coffee brewing on the trail? I have been hauling a massive percolator areound the trail recently, and while the java tastes exceptional, the size of this thing is a major problem. Any make shift solutions out there? creative brewing methods? this should be good haha.
