- Use a copper (better conductor) Cezve with 1.5mm thickness, silver plated
- The coffee should be very, very fine-almost powder-like
- The ratio is 1:10, so if your cup can hold more, scale up (i.e. 10g coffee, 100g water)
- For light roast, use 131°F (60°C). For dark roast, use 149°F (65°C)
- Bubbles start from the edge and form a coin-like circular shape in the middle...do not let the coffee boil!
- We want to let the coffee cool for one to two minutes after we finish brewing in order to allow the coffee residue to settle to the bottom to create a cleaner cup.
