Instructions

  1. Fill the coffee pot with fresh, cold water, to just a bit obove the bottom of the spout.

  2. Bring to a rolling boil.

  3. Meantime, mix the coffee & the egg, INCLUDING the SHELL, in a small bowl.

  4. When water comes to a boil, reduce heat until water is just boiling.

  5. Add coffee/egg mixture to the water, stirring CONSTANTLY & adjust the heat so as NOT to boil over!

  6. Now here's the tricky part -- stirring constantly, brew for about 3-5 minutes, until the "froth" disappears -- you can almost "feel" the water change.

  7. Remove from the heat & pour in about 1 to 1 ½ cups COLD water & let set for 5-10 minutes -- this will make the grounds settle to the bottom.

  8. There will be some grounds in the spout -- just pour them off.

  9. ENJOY!
