Kurukahveci Mehmet Efendi Turkish Ground Coffee 100g

Turkish Coffee is the world’s oldest coffee brewing method.

Consists of foam, coffee and grounds.

Remains on the palate longer than all other types of coffee thanks to its soft and velvety foam.

Has an unforgettable flavour thanks to its thick, syrupy consistency that stimulates the taste buds.

Is thicker, softer and more aromatic than other types of coffee.

The coffee is not filtered or strained because the grounds settle at the bottom of the cup.

Does not have to be sweetened after it has been poured as the sugar is added during preparation.

How to make Turkish Coffee.

It only takes two minutes to prepare Turkish Coffee.

MEHMET EFENDİ’s original finely ground Turkish Coffee is traditionally prepared in a ’cezve’, a small long-handled pot. For medium-sweet coffee, add one teaspoon full of sugar per cup.

Place the cezve on a low heat with one heaped teaspoon of coffee per cupful of water and sugar to taste.

Heat slowly, stirring gently until the sugar dissolves.

When the coffee begins to froth up, remove from heat, pour a little of the froth into each cup and return to the heat.

Let the coffee rise once more – but without letting it come to boil – and serve.

Be careful not to stir after serving or you will disturb the sediment and the coffee will taste gritty. Each cup should be frothy and deliciously aromatic.

It is customary to serve Turkish Coffee with a glass of water. The water prepares the mouth for the coffee’s flavor.

When serving a large group, it is best to prepare semi-sweet Turkish Coffee.

Always use clean drinking water. Chemicals in tap water such as chlorine affect the flavor of the coffee.

Always use high quality, freshly roasted Kurukahveci Mehmet Efendi coffee that is ground and packaged immediately after roasting.

Always store the coffee in a sealed container.

If you store your coffee in a jar or other such container after purchase:

– Always make sure the container is kept clean.

– Do not add new coffee to the container until the original coffee has been finished.

– Do not use a wet or damp spoon when dipping into the jar.

Always make sure your coffeepots are clean.

Do not use soap or detergent on your coffeepots. If you have to use detergent, make sure to thoroughly rinse the coffeepots with fresh water, making sure that no traces of cleaning products remain. Any traces will affect the coffee’s aroma and taste.

Try to use unscented soap when cleaning coffee cups and rinse thoroughly with plenty of water.

If you use a machine to prepare your coffee, be sure to follow all the cleaning recommendations found in the product’s manual.

Brew the coffee when you need it using the amount you require. If the coffee is allowed to sit too long after brewing, it will cool and lose its aroma
