Turkish Coffee is the name given to a type of coffee whose preparation and brewing techniques were invented by the Turks. It has a unique taste, froth, aroma, brewing technique and presentation... It is simple to prepare and serve. Pride is taken in preparing Turkish coffee. It is symbolic of Turkish hospitality and friendship. The care taken in preparing and serving Turkish Coffee is almost a ritual. Historically, it is the world's first coffee.
Turkish coffee is famed for the way it is made. It is prepared in an ibrik, a small coffee pot that is heated. Sugar is added during the brewing process, not after, so the need for a serving spoon is eliminated. Cream or milk is never added to Turkish coffee, and sugar is optional. It is always served in demitasse cups. Also you can put Turkish delight next to cups of coffee.

There have been tiny cups as well as huge versions called 'Kallavi.'The Turkish Coffee cup size is a matter of preference for the consumer.However, today the basic and widely used Turkish Coffee cup is 60 cc.(60 cc, = 2.0286 oz.) Some people prefer to enjoy their coffee in a larger cup (70 cc).The cooking pot 'jezve', used to cook Turkish Coffee is manufactured in several sizes to hold liquid according to how many cups are to be cooked. Automatic Turkish Coffee machines also have the capacity to accommodate the preferred sizes.
'Kahve' pronounced Kah-ve.
Turkish coffee is actually the finest grind of coffee beans used to make any kind of coffee. Espresso is next in line and is ground very fine so that the water can be forced through it in the espresso machine; Turkish coffee is actually pulverized down to powder form and boiled directly in the water. For a good Turkish coffee you have to boil the coffee in a low fire for 2 1/2 minutes and when it starts boiling a lot you lower the fire slowlly. You put the coffee to the cup at the beginning by touching the cup and the by higher your hand so it flows from a bigger distance. (that's how they make the bubbles.)
