Total Time: 10 minutes minutes
Servings: 2
Cezve or Ibrik
Heating Stove
- 150-180 mL Cold Filtered Water
- 2 tbsp Coffee Grounds
- Sugar (Optional)
Add 2 heaping tablespoons of finely ground coffee to the ibrik. Then add 150-180 mL of cold fresh water. If you want it sweetened, stir in some sugar now. You can also add a pinch of spices like cardamom if desired.
Place the cezve on the stove over low heat. Allow the coffee mixture to slowly heat up, but make sure it does not come to a full boil. As it heats gently, a thick brownish foam will start to form on the surface after 3-4 minutes.
Once you see the nice foam head has formed, pour just the foam into your serving cup(s) using a teaspoon. Then return the cezve to the heat source for about 15-20 seconds, and then remove it for 10 seconds before returning it to the heat again. Repeat this process 3-4 times to allow a second rise and more foam development.
After getting that second little foam rise, remove the cezve from heat. Slowly pour the coffee into the cups containing the reserved foam make sure to do it very slowly so that the foam rises on the top. Let the coffee sit for about a minute to allow the grounds to sink to the bottom.
