How do I make traditional Greek coffee with this dark roast?
To prepare authentic Greek coffee, you'll need this ultra-fine grind, a briki (coffee pot), water, and sugar (optional). For one demitasse cup: add one cup of cold water, one heaping teaspoon of Kifonidis Eklektos coffee, and sugar to taste in the briki. Stir gently. Place on low heat and do not stir again. As it begins to foam and rise (before it boils), lift it from the heat. Pour slowly into your cup to retain the 'kaimaki'.
What makes the 'Eklektos' blend different from other Greek coffees?
The 'Eklektos' blend is distinguished by its specific composition and dark roast profile. While many Greek coffees use a Brazilian base, 'Eklektos' enriches this with specially selected Latin and Central American beans, creating a more complex and aromatic result. The dark roast minimizes acidity and amplifies the rich, strong body, making it a favorite for those who want a powerful yet balanced cup.
Is this coffee pre-ground for a briki?
Yes, absolutely. This 200g package contains coffee that is pre-ground to the traditional, powder-like consistency. This ultra-fine grind is essential for the proper extraction and 'kaimaki' formation in a briki and is not suitable for filter machines, espresso, or a French press. It is ready to be used immediately for the traditional Greek coffee preparation method.
