I can proudly say that I’m a coffee addict and that comes with consequences. I used to ask someone (my mom or my sister) to make me coffee or order coffee from the app. Both ways are hard in their own way. Either you dependent on someone, or you need to pay. Thanks to my family they have never let me down.

However, one day I moved to another city where I was living alone and there was nobody to make me coffee. Also, it was expensive to order coffee every day, so I said to myself I needed to learn how to make Turkish coffee to suppress my coffee addiction. My journey with Turkish coffee started. I can say that I’ve mastered the Turkish coffee and today I will share my secrets with you in this full how to make Turkish coffee guide.

There are two obvious ways to make Turkish coffee first is cezve the Turkish coffee pot and the other way is Turkish coffee machine; I would like to be clear there is no shame in making your Turkish coffee with a machine. It’s fast, it’s well adjusted for foam, and you don’t need to stress when you are waiting for the coffee.

Personally I practice both ways according to the situation. For instance when I am at the office I like to use the coffee maker because as I mentioned before it's fast and you don't need to worry for the foam. However when I am at home I'm making coffee for myself or family I would prefer cezve just because I like the process and it feels more precious. No worries, both paths are similar and it’s like driving, when you learn the manual, the automatic is like kids play. 

How to make Turkish coffee with cezve

Let’s give you the proper Turkish coffee recipe so you can make it at home.

1. Use a coffee cup to measure the water and then pour it into “cezve

2. Add 6 grams of Turkish coffee per cup (I prefer more than that)

Protip: Usually people add 1 teaspoon of Turkish coffee per cup, but 1,5 teaspoon is great in terms of having the foam

3. Give it a stir and start heating it up slowly (I usually use the minimum heat, if you wanna add sugar it’s time)

Protip: If am using cezve, I keep the heat on the lowest setting and warm it as slowly as possible

4. When it’s ready pour it into cups equally

Protip: Let the coffee foam first, pour a little into each cup, then heat it once more and divide the rest. This ensures both cups get equal foam.

Fast way to brew: Turkish coffee machine

The steps are similar but much easier pour the water, add the coffee and click the on button and the Turkish coffee maker will do the rest.

How to drink Turkish coffee

I assume you read every step Turkish coffee before I proceed further on the steps

2. Water (Must)

Turkish coffee has a bitter taste so it’s important to serve it with water. Nowadays people started to serve Turkish coffee with sparkling water, and I personally prefer sparkling. However most commonly you will be served with water.

3. Sweet treat (Optional but recommended)

As stated, it’s optional but it’s recommended and common. Having a piece of chocolate with your coffee will help you to sweeten your mouth.

1.Have fun

This blog is not about the history of the Turkish coffee, but it would be a shame if didn’t mention the tradition of it. Having fun, laughing and talking to person (or people) next to you is almost the reason behind the Turkish coffee. In my family it’s common to have Turkish coffee and gossiping a little while enjoying our coffee. So, don’t forget to have and chit chat with the company of your loved ones.

2.The Foam

Turkish coffee without the foam is like a joke without a punchline. If you are served coffee without foam, it’s a failure. Imagine you’ve made 2 cups of Turkish coffee one has foam other has none you will take the one without the foam. I hope the message is clear with the foam “Turkish coffee without foam is failure”.
