Frequently Asked Questions About Turkish coffee (medium, double)
How do you make Turkish coffee?
Turkish coffee is made by gently heating very finely ground coffee with cold water and, if desired, sugar in a cezve. Stir before heating, then pour it into cups just before it boils over.
What makes Turkish coffee different from regular coffee?
Turkish coffee is brewed with exceptionally fine grounds that remain in the cup rather than being filtered out. It is traditionally served unfiltered in small cups, and the grounds settle before you drink the last sips.
How do you get foam on Turkish coffee?
For foamy Turkish coffee, start with cold water and fresh, finely ground coffee, then heat it slowly without letting it boil hard. Spoon the foam into cups before pouring in the remaining coffee.
Do you drink the grounds in Turkish coffee?
No, you usually do not drink the grounds in Turkish coffee. Let them settle at the bottom as you sip, and leave the final mouthful rather than swallowing the thick sediment.
Can you make Turkish coffee with regular ground coffee?
No, ordinary drip-ground coffee is generally too coarse for Turkish coffee and will not brew or settle the same way. Use coffee ground to a powder-like fineness for the characteristic texture and foam.
Why is water served with Turkish coffee?
Water is traditionally served with Turkish coffee to refresh your palate before tasting the coffee. A few sips beforehand can make its aroma easier to appreciate, while water afterward is simply refreshing.
Does Turkish coffee have more caffeine than espresso?
Turkish coffee can be quite concentrated, but a cup does not automatically contain more caffeine than espresso; the amount varies with the coffee and serving size. Both contain caffeine that can affect sleep.
Can Turkish coffee keep you awake?
Yes, Turkish coffee can keep you awake because it contains caffeine, which can delay sleep in caffeine-sensitive people. If it affects your rest, avoid drinking it close to bedtime.
Can you drink Turkish coffee during pregnancy?
Yes, Turkish coffee can be included during pregnancy, but its caffeine counts toward your total from all drinks and foods. Ask your healthcare professional if you need advice tailored to your pregnancy.
How should you store Turkish coffee grounds?
Store Turkish coffee grounds in an airtight container in a cool, dry, dark place to help preserve their aroma. Keep the container away from steam, heat, and strong-smelling foods.

What is Turkish coffee (medium, double)?
Turkish coffee (medium, double) is brewed by simmering finely ground coffee with water and a moderate amount of sugar in a small pot. It is poured unfiltered into a cup, where the grounds settle at the bottom. The result is rich and aromatic, with a foamy top and sweetness that softens the coffee’s intensity.
In Turkey, it is commonly served after a meal or when welcoming guests, often with a glass of water; elsewhere, it makes a small, leisurely coffee to share or enjoy after eating. Its carbohydrates mainly come from the added sugar, while the coffee itself contributes very little protein or fat. For a less sweet cup, ask for less sugar; avoid drinking the settled grounds.
