The copper cezve (also called turka) is the traditional utensil for brewing dense, aromatic Turkish coffee. Hand-hammered and then hand-tinned inside and out, it provides a food-safe surface and spreads heat evenly to create the signature foam without scorching the coffee. The wooden handle stays cool for a comfortable grip, and a precise spout makes it easy to pour into small cups. Ideal for 1–2 small cups for a small size or 3–4 cups for a large size. Suitable for gas, electric and ceramic hobs (induction with adapter only).

FAQ
Is it induction-compatible? Not directly. Use an induction adapter plate.
Does copper affect the taste? No. The interior is tinned, so the coffee never touches bare copper.
Which size should I choose? 200 ml for 1–2 small cups; 250 ml for 2–3; 350 ml for 3–4; 500 ml or 750 ml for larger cups.
