A jezve is a pot to make coffee on fire. Do you think it can be 
electronically-contolled? It would a coffee machine probably.

  AS> my face burn with an harangue about fire-safety :-)

When I was at school me used alcohol burners(spirit lamps) on our 
Chemical lessons. ;-) The firemen were less crazy. Today they paranoidly 
prohibit everything that with fire. Recently I read an instruction from 
them how citizens should prepare shashlik using a brazier. Believe me or 
not they wrote that a brazier must be make of non-inflammable material. 
;-) The world became more and more mentally retarded.

Bye, Anton!
