That video is a gold standard with a lot of detail and you can simplify from there if you get what to you is a nice brew.

I’ve started making Vietnamese coffee with a phin. I bought 250g of coffee and a phin in Ho Chi Minh City airport duty free for $5 which is close to what I would have paid for the coffee



I then add a bit of condensed milk for the true experience

I have one of those Bialetti coffee things and very good they are too. NEVER put them in a machine. Rinse out. Occasionally clean thoroughly with a cloth, check the rubber ring.

The Vietnamese coffee maker has just reminded me of being in Saigon c 2002 sightseeing on a Saturday afternoon with a local guy from the company I was working with on his scooter

‘Hey Mister Derby. You want go for sex massage?’

‘Err, no thanks. Maybe we could get cofffee instead’

Reading about these techniques makes me prefer the simplicity of a cafetiere which has nothing to go wrong!

I almost posted that one, but I didn't what to shatter Fields' illusions of a simple way to make coffee.
