A Brief History of Coffee as a Beverage
Coffee came to Istanbul in the 1500s, the first coffee shop was opened in Istanbul, then it went to Italy, France, Vienna and became Turkish coffee. It is becoming drinkable in many places in Europe.
It goes on like this for a long time, but after a while, Espresso appears.
How come Turkish coffee was not the first to emerge, but espresso has not become so widespread?
Turkish Coffee Spread from Istanbul to Europe
Espresso, as a beverage, was mechanized only 60 years after it first emerged. In this way, a standard-tasting espresso became easily accessible.
For Turkish coffee, this period is 450 years, even when the time when coffee came to Istanbul is accepted as the beginning. The level of automation that emerged after 450 years is also quite low.
Turkish coffee has become more integrated into daily life and more accessible, especially in the last 20 years, with the developments in the small household appliances sector. However, this only makes the processes in cafes and restaurants a little easier.
Does the current level of mechanization of Turkish coffee provide us with easy and equal access to fresh Turkish coffee in our daily lives?
In order for a cup of coffee we drink to be fresh, it needs to be ground instantly. Because coffee powder starts to go stale after a short while of contact with air. Check your memory, how many cafeterias have you been to where you ordered Turkish coffee and your coffee was prepared by grinding it from beans? Unless you are in a cafeteria with fast circulation, you are most likely drinking coffee that is not very fresh. When you think about espresso-based coffees, almost all of your orders are prepared by grinding the beans instantly.
Today, we see that all other coffee brands have established self-service coffee sales points under the names of “on the go” or others, and that these points are used quite intensively. However, such a sales channel is not possible for Turkish coffee. There always needs to be someone who prepares Turkish coffee. This limits the consumption areas.
Having a person prepare it means that the taste is also dependent on the person. We see that many different variables such as the amount of ingredients, the freshness of the coffee, the quality of the water, the level of cooking are managed by the person preparing it, and it is very difficult to achieve a standard.
