This recipe was extracted from Public school household science (1905) by Adelaide Hoodless, page 12. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

cup boiling water. Scald a granite or earthenware cofFee-pot, add the cold water and the crushed shell of the egg and mix with the coffee. Put the mixture into the cofFee-pot, pour on the boiling water and stir thoroughly. Boil three minutes, then move to the back of the stove. If not boiled the coffee will not be clear, and if boiled too long the tannic acid is extracted. Stir and pour some into a cup so as to clear the spout from grounds. Return to the coffee- pot and repeat. Then add a tablespoon of cold water which will help to clear. Cold water being heavier than hot water sinks to the bottom, and carries the grounds with it. Stand where it will keep hot, but not boil, for five minutes and serve at once. If it must be kept longer, strain into another hot pot. No coffee is good that is kept long after it is ready. 4— FILTERED COFFEE. 2 tsps. finely-ground coffee
