1. To make four coffee cups or eight demitasse cups of Creole coffee, bring three 8 ounce measuring cups of water to a boil in a kettle.
|
2. Meanwhile, assemble the pot and set the convex filter in place. Measure 6 tablespoons of ground coffee over this filter and put the concave filter into the top of the pot as shown above.
|
3. Pour about a tablespoonful of the boiling water into the top filter and let it flow through. Lift the top filter to check the grounds; when they stop bubbling, put the top filter back in place and pour in another tablespoon or so of boiling water.
|
4. Repeat the procedure until all 3 cups of water have dripped through. Since the procedure may take as long as 20 minutes, you may keep the coffee hot by setting the pot in a saucepan partly filled with boiling water.
|
5. Serve the coffee as soon as it is brewed or keep it hot by changing the water in the saucepan.
