What is turkish coffee pots?

Turkish coffee pots, also known as ibriks or cezve, have been used in Middle Eastern and Turkish cultures for centuries. They are often made of copper, brass, or stainless steel, and have a distinct shape with a narrow spout and a wider bottom.

Traditionally, Turkish coffee pots are heated over an open flame, or on a hot plate, and filled with finely-ground coffee, water, and sometimes sugar. The coffee is brought to a boil several times, and then served unfiltered in small cups.

Turkish coffee pots also play a role in traditional coffee fortune-telling, where the grounds left in the cup after drinking are used to predict the future. Different shapes and patterns in the grounds are interpreted to mean different things.

In recent years, Turkish coffee has gained popularity in specialty coffee shops in the Western world, and Turkish coffee pots can now be found in many home kitchens. They are often used as a decorative element as well, with intricate designs and patterns etched into the metal.
