Filter Coffee - Homemade South Indian Filter Kaapi
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon Filter Coffee Powder heaped
- ¼ cup water boiling hot
Instructions
- Make the coffee decoction
- Boil milk well and then froth the milk with sugar once by using a tumbler and davarah.
- Add 2 tablespoons of coffee powder to the perforated upper part of the coffee maker.
- Use the stand (perforated plate with stand) and gently press to level the coffee powder.
- Heat the required water to fill the filter and let it start to boil.
- Add it to the filter and fill up to the rim and close immediately with the lid.
- Wait for 15 minutes - ½ hour and collect the 1st-degree decoction and keep covered. If you want you can again add hot water and brew a second time.
- Make the coffee
- Add the required amount of decoction, for example, 2 teaspoons – 1 tablespoon and froth well. Let it be hot.
- You can use a “Dabara" tumbler to serve the coffee traditionally.
Notes
- Choose the correct filter size. Fill the quarter and add water accordingly. If you add too much water then the decoction may not be thick.
- If the coffee powder is coarse, press tightly to get thick decoction.
- If the coffee powder is fine ground, press it gently. Otherwise, it will take longer to make the decoction.
