Comment préparer Lutheran Church Basement Egg Coffee

Use a 1.5-quart graniteware coffee pot (or similar enamel-coated pot).
Wash 1 large egg thoroughly.
Crack the egg into a small bowl, reserving the eggshell. Lightly beat the egg.
Add 1/2 cup (120ml) cold water, 1 cup (approximately 100g) coarsely ground coffee, and the crushed eggshell to the bowl.
Mix the egg, water, coffee grounds, and crushed eggshell thoroughly until well combined.
Pour the mixture into the graniteware coffee pot.
Carefully pour in 4 cups (960ml) boiling water, stirring gently to combine.
(Optional) For enhanced aroma, loosely stuff the spout of the coffee pot with a soft paper towel.
Place the coffee pot on the stovetop over medium-high heat and bring to a boil for exactly 3 minutes.
**Important:** Do not overboil! Overboiling will result in a bitter, tannic taste.
Remove from heat and add the remaining 1/2 cup (120ml) cold water.
This cold water helps to settle the coffee grounds for a clearer brew.
Allow the coffee to settle for a few minutes before serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy the rich, flavorful coffee!
