How can I make Armenian coffee without a jazve?

If you do not have a jazve, cezve or briki, you can use a small pot, preferably with a pouring lip. You can also use electric coffee pots and automatic Turkish coffee makers to make Armenian coffee since both types of coffee are made by the same brewing method.

Is there an easier way to make Armenian coffee?

Besides the traditional way, electric coffee pots and automatic coffee makers also make Armenian coffee. Electric coffee pots shorten the brewing time but need to be followed to avoid overflowing. However, automatic coffee makers do not need any following and inform you by making a sound when the brewing process is finished. Automatic Turkish coffee makers can be used to make Armenian coffee.

How big is the cup used to serve Armenian coffee?

Similar to Turkish & Greek coffee cups, Armenian coffee cups hold 2-2.5 fl.oz. (60-75 ml) of coffee. They are a little bit smaller than espresso cups.

Armenian coffee is typically served in small porcelain coffee cups with handles, and a small glass of water often accompanies it. It is also customary to offer guests some sweets, such as baklava or Turkish delight, along with it.
