Mulling coffee methods.  On this peregrination, I've been using the Turkish/Balkan method with a steel pot from the German hypermarket.  But apparently, this method provides much more cholesterol; in some scenarios, a single cup provides much more than the safe daily allowable portion (and the levels of oils in Balkan roasted coffee are high; it is, after all, a roasted nut/bean).  The mokka pot had been my usual method in city life, but apparently, there's an aluminum risk there, and I'm not sure that the abbreviated steam-mechanism of the pot would provide less of the oils.  Will mull.
