HOW TO:
1.
Start by adding the desired amount of heated water into the lower bowl. Then turn on or light the heat source.
2.
Attach the cloth filter to the upper glass bowl, making sure it is centred in the bottom. Then loosely rest the upper bowl in the lower bowl.
3.
When you see the water in the lower bowl starting to bubble, fix the upper bowl into place by gently pressing it down so a tight seal is formed. The water will rise through the tube into the upper bowl.
4.
Once the water level in the lower bowl has fallen below the bottom of the tube, add the coffee to the water in the upper bowl and stir well. Continue heating for 40 - 60 seconds.
5.
Move the stand away from the heat source and extinguish the flame. As it cools the coffee will be drawn back down into the lower bowl.
6.
Remove the upper bowl by gently rocking back and forth.
7.
The lower bowl acts as the server. Enjoy.
TOP TIPS:
When the coffee is drawing back into the lower bowl, you can use a cold wet cloth placed against the lower bowl to help speed the cooling process.
Keep your cloth filters in a sealed container of water in the fridge, changing the water daily.
