I love coffee. I’m also a bit of a coffee snob. Not in the sense that I drink only strong black coffee, but that it has to be good tasting<\/strong> <\/em>coffee. I love a shot of espresso, a flat white, a mocha, a straight cup o’ joe, all different styles, it just has to be GOOD. My current style to make at home, is Turkish coffee.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I had a terrible time making a pot of Turkish coffee at first. It always ended up producing a sludge that was undrinkable, to say the least. I finally learned how to make a proper pot when I visited a Mediterranean grocery store and had a cup made for me on a tiny bunsen burner. I mentioned my difficulties of making a cup on an electric flat-top stove. He immediately helped clarify things for me. When you’re making a pot – it’s high heat, LOW flame. Whereas, I thought it was low heat, period. You also need to use the right grind. Turkish \/ Greek \/ Mediterranean coffee is a super fine grind. Like a coffee version of talcum powder. Using my new found knowledge, I raced home with a proper grind in hand and made a cup. Successfully!<\/p>\n

When made properly, it’s like a tiny cup of creamy, smooth, coffee-flavored joy. My current brand of choice is this one… sorry, I don’t have an English name for it and “kashmar” coffee isn’t it. But it’s delicious! I found I prefer the mocha infused Turkish coffee’s, followed by a light roast, cardamon one.<\/p>\n

For the pot, I like the copper styled pots<\/a><\/strong><\/span>. I find they have the perfect height to them and allow for a nice foaming to the top.<\/p>\n
