Real men kill time at the coffeehouse over milk.

Villagers going to the coffeehouse in Karacören village in Sandıklı
district of Afyonkarahisar province, are drinking milk instead of  tea
or coffee.  Each night between 5-15 liters of fresh milk are consumed
at the coffeehouse.

Tayfun Şeker (45) and his nephew Ümit Şeker (25) run the only
coffeehouse in Karacören, which is two kilometers from Sandıklı.
The Şeker's opened their coffeehouse two years ago and sell the milk
they get from their own cows each night between 20-2300 hours.
Depending on the crowd on any given night, milk sales can fluctuate
between 5 and 15 liters.  Customers come not only from Karacören
but from Sandıklı and surrounding villagers, as well.
