MikeWill Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 (edited) What about Turkish coffee?! It is strong, aromatic and easy to make. Just mix the coffee with sugar and boil it in a small pot with a narrow top. No need for expensive equipment, just a pot and a grounder to ground the coffee (fine grounded coffee is also sold in Thailand). Easy cleaning as well. Take a look at Wikipedia Edited March 4, 2009 by Condo_bk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 But then I moved up to a semi-automatic cappuccino maker and I haven't looked back. The OP was looking for brewed coffee, not cappuccino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lannarebirth Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 I like French Press coffee as well but it has two major drawbaks as far as I'm concerned. One, the second cup from iit is always cold. Two, I've has three French Presses here because I've yet to find replacement glass for any French Presses here, so I stopped using them altogether.

longball53098 Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 I've sampled many different brands from the various sources here in Pattaya. I use a inexpensive drip coffee maker that I bought in Home Pro 4 years ago with the gold metal filter basket. I clean the tank with white vinegar every few months and I keep coming back to Starbucks as my coffee of choice. I import it when a friend comes in from the US at the US prices not the inflated Thai prices. Usually 10 pounds at a time in the vacuum sealed bags that are date coded for a long time. My wife uses the grinder on the blender to grind one bag to my grind which is close to an espresso grind. When I brew my morning coffee about 1 liter of water and my preferred amount of coffee after not more than 5 minutes I pour the pot of fresh coffee into a one liter glass thermos coffee server with a tight lid. This method keeps the fresh coffee hot enough to drink for easily more than 3 hours and does not scald and burn it. For the OP if you are happy with the French Press then keep up the taste testing the various brands and roasts. But I would suggest a thermos bottle to keep the brew hot and fresher. Coffee like fine wine and beer is a subjective thing and we all have different taste buds. No one can say this or that is the best! It's like appreciating a painting some will like it and some not. There is no perfect cup of coffee except to the person drinking it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
