  9. Prepare siphon pot. Fill the lower pot with 200 grams of hot water (keep the bottom of the pot dry). Hook up the filter element in the upper pot, insert it obliquely into the lower pot, and soak the iron chain into the water in the lower pot. Light the alcohol lamp and heat the pot. When big bubbles continue to appear in the lower pot, straighten the upper pot and press it into the lower pot, and the water from the lower pot will flow into the upper pot. After the water bubbles have reduced, add 30 grams of coffee powder, use a bamboo spoon to lightly stir the coffee powder, press the powder under the water, and cook for 30 seconds. Dip in the coffee grounds again and continue brewing for 30 seconds.
