Arzum Okka Minio Automatic Turkish/Greek Coffee Machine, USA 120V UL, Black/Silver

I became interested in Turkish coffee when I saw Turkish coffee prominently drunk on a Turkish Soap Opera. I chose this Arzum Okka Minio because of its small compact size. My goal overall was to drink the best most delicious coffee possible. Regular in the morning and decaf in the evening! Naturally, this would include grinding whole beans so that I can fulfill my goal of decaf in the evenings. To add to the Turkish coffee experience and add even greater variety I also purchased a Bodum French Press coffee maker. And I do own two Moka Espresso coffee makers. In my research I discovered that Turkish coffee contIns half the caffeine of espresso! Bonus. Ok, back to the Arzum Okka Minio. First it is so very easy to use! It is ultra fast which is such a plus. I viewed several YouTube videos giving instructions on how to use this specific coffee maker. On the advice of one of those videos 2.5 ounces to 1/2 tbsp coffee. ... News to my ears...I want to enjoy a greater volume of coffee so I use 1 slightly rounded tbsp coffee to 5 ounces of fresh cold water. You can experiment on your own to prepare coffee to your own liking. However, typically it is1 tbsp coffee to 2.5 ounces water. I do like the coffee like this too....however, I find my preparation allows for the wonderful deep coffee flavour to shine through. This is real coffee. No doubt about it. It is not burnt. It is not bitter...just a true coffee robust flavour that never disappoints. It does not cause a stomach ache. Oh, if you are not interested in grinding your own Turkish coffee... I high recommend you purchase Turkish coffee with added cardamom. The cardamom perfumes the coffee with the taste of a most seductive spice. Now, sadly, this coffee maker does not produce much foam at all...but I am experimenting to improve the situation. As you use this coffee maker more and more every day you will find the confidence to become an fashionably animated barista. You will begin to pour the coffee into your cup from a grater height or distance from the cup. This is a start in the right direction and a bit more foam is produced. Who knew making coffee could be so much fun?! But delicious deep coffee flavour trumps foam any day. Don't look at the price...take the plunge and gift yourself a true and real cup of coffee! You will not be disappointed! If you love, love, love coffee...this is your dream come true! Enjoy! P.S. This type of coffee is also called Greek Coffee. The coffee sold called this is the same thing. The coffee grinder I have purchased is the Cuisinart Burr Coffee Grinder. I will be able to grind my own coarse coffee for French Press and powder fine Turkish coffee. Adding flavours is a matter of taste to either brew. Just sit back and enjoy!

It was great. But expensive

Do not recommend. Works less than a year and got damaged.

Works great, fast and makes perfect Turkish coffee

Machine so easy to use. Coffee made by the machine tasty and delicious
