Omg that's a lot of water lol. I usually pour in only 1/3-1/5 of the drip pot. Too much water will introduce the 'sour' taste to the coffee. For a less concentrated drink, i dilute it with water afterward or just let the ice melts instead.

@bkhoavo Thanks, that's a good idea! I'll try that next time I make it.

Hi, nice strainer, it's clean and practical. Where did you get that? Brand? Is that specifically for Vietnamese coffee? Thanks

[FrenchMartini]

@meappy I don't know the brand but I bought these at Ranch 99 market (they would probably be available from any Asian market or cooking supply store,) They cost about $4 each. I've only used them from Vietnamese coffee but I'm sure that you could use them with any other strong drip coffee.

[FrenchMartini]

@kimmie117 It's a 10 oz. glass.

"cà phê sữa đá" is what you are making :X

[nguyenoanh156]

this is definitely the way to make fine coffee in Vietnamese style :) U have to wash your cup and filter with hot water first. Pour a little hot water first, wait for coffee powder to absorb to get the best taste and fragance.

Yu cud get them at a asain store

[cpthemonstergamer]

where do i get one of those?

[bergersdog]

Known locally as cà phê sữa đá (Vietnamese milk coffee iced). We have it in Cambodia as well. Basically, anywhere the French were, they left coffee and baguettes.

What grind should the coffee have? espresso? french press? somewhere in between?

[dalyryg]

you also don't want to use *boiling* water. just shy of a boil

[beachfeet1000]

looks just about right to me

[sdalcorn]

@FrenchMartini - actually, you should put just a 'little' water in first (less than an Oz) to let the coffee 'bloom'. Wait about 20~30 seconds. Then pour the rest of the water in - just as you have done.
