I live in the Middle East and drink Turkish coffee every day.

Nobody uses those copper pots. This is more like what's actually used, and it does a much better job (and is a lot cheaper, cleans easier, and isn't probably safer).



As far as getting started goes, really all you need is the pot and some really fine-ground coffee. Most home grinders aren't capable of grinding fine enough (with some exceptions), so your best bet is to either buy pre-ground Turkish or ask a cafe to grind their beans for you as fine as they can.

Here is a pretty barebones method that is a great way to start out. Greek coffee = Turkish coffee.

This is another pretty straightforward method. Plus his accent is glorious.

This is how you don't make Turkish coffee.

This guy shows off some variations of the Balkan method of making Turkish coffee.

About as authentic you can get.

Now that I've got you salivating, you may want this or this.

Enjoy.

This bad boy, or anything like it should be perfect. Fill it like half way with water, throw like 2 tbs coffee in, and you're set. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B008NCXJ3C/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_gYY0BbC5BJD5H

I make Turkish coffee. Here's a good ibrik, a small pot to boil the grind in.

You don't need fancy cups, any container will do. To make Turkish properly you need quite a bit of grind to water. Look up a YouTube video. I use Turkish grind to make normal French Press style coffee, you need patience or a pressurised filter system to get a good cup.

Turkish coffee is like a percolater, you boil it until the mixture rises to the brim of the ibrik, take it off heat for a few moments, stir a bit (or don't), put it back on heat to boil again, repeat a few times, then take it off heat and pour slowly into your cup. If you pour too fast you'll get muddy coffee. There will be grind in your cup, that's normal. You wait for it to settle at the bottom. Pouring slowly allows the grind to settle to the bottom of the ibrik.

Copper is lined with tin or stainless steel, full copper is not normal and is dangerous. Stainless steel is perfectly normal and fine to use. My copper ibrik is lined with tin. I also own that stainless one. I filter my coffee using an aeropress, and I don't boil it like Turkish coffee. I don't have a recipe for Turkish coffee, just look on Google and YouTube, it's pretty easy.

It's a lot like espresso, good mixed, meant to be an almost 1:1 ratio water extract to grind. Don't expect a full cup of coffee unless you intend to make it like I do, that is like 2 espresso pucks of coffee grind to around 10oz of water.
