Here i am sharing the traditional way of making filter coffee,you will need the south indian coffee filter to make this coffee. This is easily available in most utensil shops in western and south india as well as online. You need to use coffee powder which is meant for preparing filter coffee .. The taste of the coffee, largely depends on the type of ground coffee used.South Indians love to have this first thing in the morning , after breakfast and during evening. They feel very happy to serve this coffee to their guest. All South Indian Restaurants serving breakfast sell this coffee.
