Top 10 mistakes turkish coffee
Turkish coffee is one of the easiest ways to make coffee delicious. These are instructions on how to avoid common mistakes when doing a turkish coffee.
Using the wrong proportion
One common mistake is the wrong ratio of coffee to water. If you have too much water or too much coffee is not the result be drinkable! The rule most common cup is a cup of water with a teaspoonCoffee>. If your coffee strong you can use two teaspoons but do not use more …
Using the wrong grind
To use the turkish coffee powder should be fine. If you are coarser coffee then you will not be able to extract the flavors of coffee. They are not even countries to create the special coffee foam up and East is very popular in many countries of the Balkan East. This special foamlooks like coffee with cream and is known as Kaimaki in Greece. Also, be sure to use very fine ground coffee.
If you want to grind your coffee, use a quality burr grinder (manual or electric). You can also use a mortar and pestle.
Hot coffee
You have to prepare a coffee turkish coffee. Mix with a little 'sugar for coffee, mix with water.
After the lightuntil the fire and start heating the coffee in the pot, it is very important to watch carefully as the coffee comes to a simmer. And 'essential that you do not cook!
If you reduce the bitter coffee and then getting flat tasting. In order to make delicious turkish coffee, you must stop the heating when the coffee mixture is almost boiling.
In this particular time, the foam coffee forms a ring at the tip. This foam ringslowly increasing in size, the gap closes and then the coffee starts to rise. Once the foam ring closes the gap to the top and starts rising heating system must stop. If you start to cook and taste will be destroyed. So, be careful and take it slow!
Bring to boil more than 3 times
There are some people who prefer once the coffee to boil, almost finished. I find this a waste of time and sometimes canalso lead to a loss of quality. Bring coffee, almost more than 3 times is an exaggeration!
The addition of sugar to a boil
If your coffee sweet add a teaspoon of sugar for every teaspoon of coffee. If your coffee sweet double the amount of sugar. It 'important sugar before the heating set to maximize flavor. The sugar melts and becomes one with the coffee in yourMouth.
With the wrong size pot
To make two cups of coffee with a coffee cup (or ibrik cezve) that contains 3 cups of coffee mocha. You can also measure the ability of the pan with water. The cup is counted separately in order to facilitate the formation of foam together and mixing process.
Now you may ask:
"Why can not I use a 5" pot size coffee Cup in two cups of boiling coffee? "Bigger is better!"
UnfortunatelyNot so!
You see … If you have a coffee pot as big as this makes the coffee foam creation rather hard. The shape of the coffee pot (conical) facilitates the creation of a special oven effect makes the foam much easier and more precise.
If you have a very large coffee pot, then it will be difficult, a foam on top of Turkish coffee. Try it and see the difference!
Hot watermake it faster
There are many professionals, the hot water to run faster to make turkish coffee. In fact, they have big boilers and when a customer asks for a cup of turkish coffee, pouring water from the kettle in his coffee to make them hot coffee and Boil sugar and everything as soon as possible!
The result, as you might guess, is to destroy all the delicate coffee flavor. This is becausebasic physics and chemistry … Hot water (90 ° C or higher) interacts with the coffee and then, as if this were not enough, boil a little more coffee!
So just use cold coffee and unhurried. Your taste buds will thank you!
Pour quickly and sloppily
When done pour the coffee slowly heating to keep the foam on top. If you do it quickly the foam may break.
Do not let the coffeesettle a bit 'after serving
After serving coffee, the coffee small floating around the cup. Just let the system if not for a few minutes (if you like eating coffee
)
Not enough to take time to enjoy!
This, in my opinion the biggest mistake ever. We live in time was very fast, full of stress.
Why you should be in a hurry when drinking coffee is turkish? Relax! Take asip, leaned back and enjoy! Say what you learned with your friends and give them a cup of coffee, right?
Enjoy!
