Chemex 3 cup

Without a doubt one of the most recognizable and stylish coffee makers on the market. The Chemex was designed in 1941 and has been brewing delicious coffee ever since.

Its non-porous, heat-resistant glass construction, combined with proprietary, scientifically designed filters, produces clear, complex coffee.

In fact, it's the filters that are the star of Chemex. They are 20-30% heavier than other filters and remove the finest sediment particles. The filter design facilitates proper brewing time by regulating the filtration rate - approximately 4 minutes of brewing.

A warning: Since the filters are made of thick paper, they must be rinsed completely with hot water before brewing to remove any paper taste. Interestingly, there are other filter options for the Chemex as well. If you want to try a reusable filter that gives you a totally different, but equally delicious coffee, take a look at the Able Kone.

Since the Chemex is glass, you can see the coffee as it brews, and because it is a pour-over method, you can also customize your brew method very easily.

It comes with a polished wooden collar and a leather tie: the collar serves as an insulating handle around the middle of the coffee maker.

The Chemex is so cool that it's on permanent display at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and James Bond makes his coffee in it. What other testimonials do you need?
