I am a former chef and traditional Ethiopian coffee is made for each pot, they have special pans to roast the coffee in and make it fresh, I have a friend would runs an Ethiopian restaurant, and like the Japanese Tea Ceremony, it is structured and time honoured way of making and brewing coffee, not made up and sits, in Ethiopia he told me as here it is ordered and they bring you things to eat while waiting!.
As for the bean they are special to, mountain grown and are shipped "green", unroasted, they then hand roast them, them pound or grind, and make it in a special coffee pot, I have seen it done here in Toronto in heated sand, then it is serve with one sugar and popcorn to munch on, the coffee stores use a type of bean from Ethiopia there are 3 main types, and all are of the most ancient of species!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
