Turkish coffee? Good or Bad?

This is a very quick and good way to make coffee if you only want one or two cups. I use expresso grind.

I love this coffee. Wasn't sure I would like it but it's a great treat around 10 o'clock every morning.

Good!! I like it, papagalos traditional is a good coffee if you know how to make. Look it up on you tube on how to cook.

They are pretty good, not very hot but not luke warm. Should be drunken immediately. The full cup of coffee is pretty good. I always stick to dark roast myself. The latte's aren't worth it. Just powdered milk and it tastes it.

No, it is terrible. I have seen some emails that made me think it works but if it does I don't know what they are doing. I tried using one pod, then two pods and even just the loose coffee and each time it is terrible. It was a waste of money in what I ordered.

I can't give you an objective answer, however, I can tell you that I grind my beans for espresso at the lowest "fine" level and the grind is ideal....the grinder then has an additional 4 levels of "extra fine grind". Without having confirmed it for myself, I would guess that the Capresso should suit your needs for the extra fine grind needed for Turkish style coffee. Good luck!

I love the medium, Patti. It's called Three Sisters and is a delicious blend. If you like very strong coffee, go with the dark. Hope you like it! BH

I think Columbian. It's good coffee - especially for the price. Reminds me of coffee you get in a diner.

Yes, it is.If you get it, remember its strong, do not put in as much coffee as you would ordinary coffee. Try using 2/3 of the amount you normally use. Happy Holidays! John from Buffalo

I find it excellent for espresso. A bonus is that a lighter roast contains (slightly) more caffeine than the typical dark roast espresso blends.

Yes, it works quite well ... still very satisfied with the consistently good coffee ... good luck ...

Definitely. I typically use it on the finest setting for my espresso. That's more akin to a Turkish grind than espresso, but it's the kind of coffee powder I prefer.

I really don't know. You might look at their website. The coffee is really good. It is a bolder coffee than others I have tried.

You have to be happy with your purchase. Your coffee and the process have to be enjoyable. Good luck...

Based on what I know about Turkish coffee drinkers, myself included :) is, that even though we drink the coffee from the "tiny cups" it's customary to pour another" tiny one" after the first one..., so you would be better of with 24 oz. But, if that reason does not pursue you there is another one...when you cook Turkish coffee, the coffee will boil over in 12 oz one, or at least the level of coffee will rise right before its done, so 12 oz might overflow :) Enjoy it!!!!

Not to be a putz, knowing the very common reference, but there is nothing particularly 'French' about a coffee press... that I know of. Now to address your question... in my wandering, round-a-bout manner. After being delightfully introduced to pressed coffee years (and years) ago, I dove into learning all about it and testing out each bit of info I encountered. Like most things one might obsess about, I determined there is a range of 'truth' about such things and the final answer is what your needs and tastes are. The accepted, simple answer is, like the other comments, a medium to larger grind, not fine as in an espresso grind, used in your Moka pot. This is to avoid grounds appearing in ones cup of Joe or clogging it up. Personally, I do not get lost in it anymore, nor do I mind a stray bit of coffee... in my coffee cup. I grind my coffee beans in a low-rent electric grinder and just eyeball what's about right and it seems to work. I also use some pre-ground, grocery store, bag coffee when time is pressing (no pun intended) and no problems arise. Keeping in mind that I have enjoyed Turkish coffee, but would have to 'man-up' to prepare and drink it every day. Anywho, I suggest you play around and find what works for you, initially avoiding espresso grind, without worrying about a press pot mishap. A press pot is simple device and soon will become an automatic ritual. Feel blessed you chose an all stainless steel pot (unbreakable, unless you have a gorilla in service) coffee press... the glass pots will break... just because you look at it funny. Best wishes on easily making & enjoying an excellent coffee every day... while the uninitiated continue to drink swill or throw money and time at their local coffee shop barista.

Yes it's outstanding but just depends on the coffee you use . I work at a coffee roastery so coffee is always fresh for me . Makes a huge difference :)

I use it for a meal on the go, not so much for weight loss. I think that they are tasty and I don't like coffee but even the coffee-ish one was good :)
