    About Filter Coffee

    Filter Coffee refers to the coffee brewed using a special equipment called filter which drips slowly to make a decoction. Filter Coffee is made using filter coffee powder, milk, hot water and sugar.

    Filter Coffee is made by pouring hot water over ground coffee beans, allowing the water to pass through a filter, the strained thick liquid is called decoction. Filter Coffee is made by mixing boiled milk with the prepared coffee decoction that’s prepared with a coffee filter and served in a metal dabarah and tumbler.

    Filter Coffee is known by different names like filter kaapi, degree coffee etc. Making South Indian Filter Coffee isn’t a big deal but to get the perfection sure comes only by practice. It takes time and effort when compared to instant coffee but worth it. This popular coffee is served in many restaurants, hotels, also in street side shops.

    Filter Coffee is perhaps the lifeline for most of the families in South India to start the day with. While a perfect coffee can light up the day, getting addicted to it and slightest difference in taste might pull your day!

    Filter coffee is served in dabarah & tumbler set and my mom has a very lovely collection of them in steel and bronze.The taste of this coffee purely depends on the quality of coffee powder, so choose a good one.

    Filter Coffee is served traditionally in dabarah tumbler be it steel or bronze. Steel is the popular one served in most hotels. Filter Coffee always reminds me of Hotel Annapoorna coffee which is the best. They use a special coffee powder and they use slightly thickened milk which makes filter coffee taste divine.

    Coffee Filter

    Coffee Filter is shown in the picture below and we make decoction for this coffee using this filter. You will need this equipment to make this tasty hot beverage. It has two compartments and a disc for pressing.

    The upper compartment holds the ground coffee powder, hot water and it has holes that let the brewed decoction drip into the lower compartment. The lower compartment collects the strong decoction. The pressing disc is used for making the ground coffee powder even in the upper compartment and aids in pushing the ground powder & water to the lower compartment.

    Filter Kaapi Recipe

    Coffee Filter has 4 parts :

    • Upper Compartment – to which we add ground coffee beans and hot water.
    • Lower Compartment – to hold the strained decoction
    • Pressing disc – which presses the coffee powder and hot water to make decoction
    • Lid – which is used to close the upper compartment.

    Dabarah and Tumbler – Filter coffee is served authentically in a steel or bronze dabarah / davara and a tumbler set. Most hotels serve filter coffee in steel dabarah tumbler and in very few they served in bronze set. Commonly it is served in stainless steel dabarah and tumbler at homes.

    Copper and bronze sets are also available in the market. Pouring coffee to and forth in dabarah & tumbler gives a frothy top which makes it more appealing.

    Filter Coffee Ingredients

    • Filter Coffee Powder – Coffee powder that is available in stores is fine for making this coffee. In the market we have Peaberry (PB) variety commonly with 20% added chicory gives a good filter coffee. Coffee powder of most of the brands sell them fresh in the above mix. All of them can make a good aromatic, tasty hot coffee! My suggestion is to try each of them which is available in small quantities with different levels of chicory and purchase that brand regularly which suits your taste most!
    • Milk – Fresh full cream milk is best for making filter coffee. Store bought milk is also fine. I have tried with both fresh milk as well as tonned milk and it works.
    • Sweetener – I have used white granulated sugar. But you can use cane sugar too.

    Expert Tips

    • Coffee powder – Make sure to buy good quality coffee powder.
    • Coffee decoction – Use less water to make strong coffee decoction. We can take even 2 decotion by adding in little more water once the 1 st decoction is taken and used. The 2nd decoction is not very strong.
    • Sweetener – Coffee is meant to have a slight bitterness so I woul d suggest not to add more sugar.
    • Serving – Add coffee decoction as per your taste, add little more if you like your coffee strong. Always froth the coffee by pouring back and forth into the davara tumbler and then serve.
    • Reheating – Once the decoction is added to the milk and coffee is made, do not heat. If you want to heat then place the coffee tumbler inside a container which has boiling water.

    Serving and Storage

    Serve filter coffee hot in a metal dabarah & tumbler set. It goes well with a sweet and Kaaram (Savory) and widely called as SKC (Sweet Kaaram Coffee) at hotels & south indian homes!

    When you are busy to find time for preparing this coffee in your routine, be sure not to miss it in the weekends! We deserve something special in weekends! Don’t we?

    Decoction storage: Prepare decoction such that it is consumed in whole after preparation. 3 tablespoons of coffee powder with 1 cup hot water will yield about 3 to 5 cups of coffee depending on how strong the coffee you want it to be. If you are left with excess decoction, it can be stored for a day when refrigerated. When you are using it you have to heat it by placing the decoction container in hot water in order to retain the flavor.

      You have posted this post at right time for me. I do not drink coffee and tea. My husband need only filter coffee. Moreover next week i have to make coffee for nearly 20 to 25 members. Can you share me the percentage of coffee powder . Normally at my home 80 and 20 ratio. I would like to know your coffee and chocory ratio. So that you are helping me a lot.

      Thanks in advance

        You can use 10-12 tsp of coffee powder, water and milk around 5-6 cups. I have just rounded off, you can adjust according to your taste. But do you have a filter that can hold so much? Else you can make it in batches and refrigerate it. Hope this helps!

      Hello, I'm just visiting from Knapkins.com, intrigued by your filter kaapi. I know of American drip coffee, espresso, coffee from a French press, an Italian press, Turkish coffee, instant coffee, but I have never heard of South Indian filter coffee. The utensils are beautifull. Thanks for sharing. Cheers.

      Hi Sharmi, I love filter coffee and an avid drinker. Could you please throw more light about the ratio of the chicory and coffee powder. I love vasantha bavan and saravana bavan coffee. Could you please provide more information on that

        Do you have the filter holes big? Even if it passes faster no issues unless and until your decotion is good and thick enough….

      Hi

      Do you put in the plunger thing after or before adding the water? does it make a difference?

      Thanks! Great photos!

        Yes I usually put it after adding water…it helps in dripping easier and faster

      Hey Sharmi,
      I love filter coffee very much, but I do not have a filter and since I am not in India and did not find a filter in the local Indian store here, could you please tell me if there is a way to make coffee with the same taste. I did manage to get Narasus coffee powder though.
      Thanks in advance,
      Tanu

      Hi Sharmi.. Started using a Percolator to make the decoction…. its easier cause its more instant. its available in Amazon…..

      To use the percolator i usually add less water then boil it without the filter. later on i add the filter part.. its easier cause i don't have to wait for the decoction to be made.

      the early morning aroma makes my day, even outside india i dont hesitate to spend some extra time making milk and sugar filter coffee.i am currently using jayanthi coffee for almost 5 years, my friends get it to me from india which has 15% chikory. I love the aroma.
