Operating Instructions

Follow these steps to prepare delicious Turkish coffee:

1. Measure Water: Fill the appliance with cold water according to the number of people you are making coffee for (maximum 5 demitasse cups). The total capacity is 0.4 liters.
2. Add Ingredients: For medium-sugar coffee, add 1 coffee cup of water, 1 tablet of sugar, and a heaping full scale of Turkish coffee grounds. Adjust sugar and coffee amounts to your taste for different strengths and sweetness levels.
3. Power On: Plug your appliance into a suitable power outlet (using a voltage converter if necessary) and turn it on using the on/off button on the handle.
4. Stir: While the coffee is heating, mix the coffee a few times using a teaspoon to ensure all ingredients are well combined.
5. First Rise (for foam): When the coffee begins to rise slightly and foam appears on the surface, turn the appliance off. Carefully pour a small amount of the foamy coffee into each serving cup. This creates the desired foam layer.
6. Second Rise (for remaining coffee): Turn the appliance on again. Allow the coffee to rise once more.
7. Serve: Once the coffee rises again, pour the remaining coffee into the cups, distributing it evenly.
8. Enjoy: Your Turkish coffee is now ready to be served.
