Turkish Coffee... Copper or Brass cesve/ibrik?

Do you have enameled cezves in your country?

That's what we normally use in Turkey at home..

In hotels, Coffee shops they use copper.

It is better looking touristically.

Steel- well, most of the time people can't make good Turkish coffee with that thick golden coloured foam over it.

Even so it's widely used in Turkey.

You just need to be more careful.

If you cook it with extra care, smallest heat that's possible, stirring the cofee while heating it, you can cook it right, and that's healthy.

It should be cooked very slowly.

Other than that many firms have coffee machines that make Turkish coffee in Turkey.

Arcelik for instance.

Any possibility of making someone buy one for you??

EDIT

These are similar to the ones we use in Turkey

If you use a copper coffee pot and cook it on the coal fire it is the best taste you will have at your Turkish Coffee.

But not only the pot changes the taste of your coffee. I think If you read this article you will get what I am trying to say:

Roasting & Grinding method, the water that you use at your coffee, choosing the right coffee pot, using white sugar instead of brown one will also change the taste of your coffee.

Usually Turkish people use brass or enameled Coffee Pots at their regular lifes but in Turkish Coffeehouses all Turkish Coffees are cooked at Copper Pots which the comman idea of Turkish People is It's more delicious to use a Copper Pot.

Here is a great source where you can get more information about Turkish Coffee Pots:

I hope you have the best delicious Turkish Coffees.

I am happy that our traditional Drink is getting more popular in all around the world.

Check with Tom, I think he has offered a stainless steel unit that works as an Ibrik...

SOrry, for the rest of you folks, that would be at Sweet Maria's..

Edit: I got not only a copper Ibrik from SM's i also FINALLY got a ZASS Turkish Grinder from them. Just in time to get 'instructions' from my brothers foreign Exchange student, from Serbia, on its proper use. I really don't know much about the copper/brass issue. Unless your using the Ibrik almost daily, I don't think re-tinning will be an issue.

If it's authenticity you seek go for copper. If it's not leeching from the metal go with stainless steel.
