Heheheh Tiny my friend it is not 'most complicated and long winded version' at all. Believe me I prepare this coffee in less than two minutes(of course after water boils). And it is my pleasure to watch the foam rising up all those times.

Well this is the way of making turkish coffe from the Ottoman Empire while Bosnia was under Turkish rule (1463-1878) hihi ...my grand mother taught me..he rgrandmother taught her and so on...
I wanted to share this old way of making turkish coffee (and traditional here in my country) ..

But instead of coffee pot it is better to use 'cezve' long-handled pot for making Turkish coffee (cezve is made of copper) and it hase better taste in 'copper coffee pot' than when you make it in usual cofee pot.

And here are some advantages for not adding sugar in water (AlphaF):

First** when sugar boils beraber with water and coffee, coffee loses its original taste (chemical reasons do not ask me why)

Second***it is much easier to please your friends, why, well everyone's taste is different , for some of them it could be çok çok şekerli for some of them it can be very bitter(acı and after that they wont ever drink your coffee.
And it is more polite when you ask while serving : do you like more şekerli or less, how much dou you want me to put in your cup one or two teaspon?


Preparing, serving, and drinking coffe should be delightfull.

One more thing: you should always have a sugar pot filled with some pieces of cube sugar couse some of bayanlar like having ‘keyif’ while drinking coffee(like me mesela hehe)
