When the coffee molecules are poured into the container they block water vapor molecules from escaping. Boiling water turns the water to vapor which then excapes from the top of the container. When there is a coffee in there they actually block the escape of the water vapor or steam. The water boils again when it reaches a certain higher temperature so the water molecules can move fast enough to once again escape the container was steam. This is called Boiling Point Elevation.

Does instant coffee dissolve in water?

No you cannot burn instant coffee; during the process in which instant coffee is made it is roasted at 180 degrees, so when you pour boiling water (which is 100 degrees) over the resulting granules it is not possible to burn the coffee. However the taste of coffee changes distinctly depending on the order in which it is made. For instance if milk is added to the granules before boiling water the resulting taste is mild and creamy, on the other hand if hot water goes in first the resulting taste is full bodied and slightly bitter.
