Like the title says I was gifted some pre-ground coffee by relatives that visited Brazil. This coffee is pre-ground and is finer than anything I’ve seen. Seriously, it looks like powered sugar!

My usual brewing method is a pour over, but it is so fine the water doesn’t filter through.

My backup method has been a french press and it works, but not ideal as it tends to over extract.

Any suggestion from the community (that don’t involve buying an espresso machine, that plan was already veto’d by my spouse…)?

It might be a Turkish grind if it looks finer than espresso. You would need to get an ibrik to brew it but luckily those are way cheaper than espresso machines.

Turkish coffee needs very fine grounds because you don't filter it, you just drink it grounds and all.
