Coffee turkish (czech style)

Be honest. Coffee-machines are luxury-problems, aren't they?

I'm interested. How popular is the simple "coffee turkish", directly brewed in the mug, all over the world, today?

We do it at home, using a Turkish hand coffee grinder and darker roasted beans.

We try to grind as fine as possible, I actually like the chalk-like sediment!

I haven't seen Turkish coffee here for 40 years.

Germany: Haven't seen it here. Most coffee-shops are just bakeries or some portuguese shops.

Of course not in public stores. Which store would offer unfiltered, mug-brewed coffee, for real??

Oh, sorry - i got it wrong then. Haven't seen it anyway.

Hard to believe there's a better selection of coffee served in Canada than there is in some European countries!

A few years ago my aunt gave me a sort of enamelled pot with a handle on it. She used it for putting gravy in until a customer of mine saw it and told me it was for making coffee. I had no idea.

I've tried it a few times, you stick ground coffee in it along with water and boil it all up. it works very well. I only drink coffee black ad prefer espresso, but you can mess about with this and find out the best way for your own taste.

Finer its ground the better or you end up drinking coffee grounds that float up.

If I’m in the mood for Turkish coffee, I go to the Greek restaurant up the street and order Greek coffee. I’m pretty sure someone will give me guff about this, but they ARE very similar.

I would say the method is the same as greek coffee.
My grandmother told me that this also was the way to make coffee here in Austria at home, some 70 years ago. Although real coffee was quite a luxury after or while the war.

It's been quite a while and like Tiki Tom, I ended up with Greek coffee. (Another reason to leave Newark) I liked it, just tough to come by. Ditto for real Cuban coffee. Once you've enjoyed the real thing, all else is just tolerable.
