Product Description
Pure Elegance
The beauty and functionality of the CHEMEX has been admired by many over the last 80 plus years. The CHEMEX can be found in museums throughout the world such as the Brooklyn Museum, Corning Museum of Glass and MOMA, NY.
Pure Ease
The inventor of the CHEMEX, Dr. Peter Schlumbohm, set out to make a coffeemaker that anyone could use easily to make consistently good coffee. The result was a vessel that brews the perfect cup of coffee every time.
Pure Taste
The CHEMEX system brews the perfect cup of coffee using the patented CHEMEX filters along with the pure glass coffeemaker. It provides the proper flow rate for extraction and all important “bloom” while removing bad fats, bitterness, acidity, and sediments that other types of filters leave behind. Light, medium, and dark roast lovers will enjoy the true taste of their beans with the CHEMEX.

A family owned company with a legacy...
The story began in 1941, when the CHEMEX Coffeemaker was invented by Dr. Peter Schlumbohm PhD to brew the PERFECT cup of coffee. Since that time, the CHEMEX has spanned generations and the globe as an icon of American design. History and craft are embedded in our makeup. At the CHEMEX factory located in Massachusetts, we still inspect, polish and hand-tie each coffeemaker and cut every filter - just as we always have. Led by a brother and sister who grew up on the factory floor, CHEMEX Corporation is made up of a team of people who are passionate about bringing superior brewing equipment to the global community.

CHEMEX Bonded filters are based on laboratory paper and designed to remove bad fats, bitterness, acidity and sediments that all other types of filters leave behind.

I have enjoyed using the Chemex coffee brew system. I did have a Keurig, but I felt like it was never clean, and there was no way to clean inside of it. I was concerned that was what was causing me to have additional allergies and issues with my health. Lots of research I found Chemex. Having the system all glass, I’m able to clean it thoroughly each time. I got the 3 cup size, which is perfect for just me to use. I have tried the half filters as well as the folded filters. I recommend the square pre-folded filters because they do not have a seam where the grounds can escape. You just have to add an additional fold for the 3 – cup size. I also got a stainless steel electric kettle. This is a great combination. If you are concerned about if your Keurig or coffee maker is fully clean, I highly recommend this product. It is very easy to use and the coffee taste great. The only thing I don’t really like and wish was different. Is the wood band on it. As you can see from the photos, it gets worn down after getting wet through the washes. The leather knot is too hard to undo each time so I don’t untie the knot anymore. I tried untying it a few times but it is hard to get back on tight enough. They need a band of some sort that does better with washing instead of wood— or something easier to remove.

I'm trying to live a more toxin-free lifestyle, one of the things that I have done to do this is get rid of my plastic Keurig machine. I replaced it with this pour over Chemex. Little did I know it would improve many different things for me, including: The overall taste of my coffee, before I was buying pre-ground at the grocery store. I have since stopped and started buying a whole bean called purity and then I grind it down myself then pour it into this Chemex. Coffee tastes so much more better, it literally is like a art of its own. I use paper filters, pre wet them first. Boil up some water in my bodum kettle and then pour a little bit over the top to let the gases release and then I start pouring little by little until it reaches the little dot on the on the glass, the little dot on there lets me know that's a full cup. Cleans up well, super aesthetically pleasing to see it on my counter. Love the sound of the coffee dripping, I have no problem waiting just a little bit longer to do it this way than the , I have no problem waiting just a little bit longer to do it this way than the automatic coffee machines. Because I know that the way that I'm doing it is the healthiest way possible for my body.

Pas de pb avec la carafe ce qui est le plus important, mais l’emballage est arrivé abîmé et vu l’ouverture il avait déjà été ouvert - pas terrible pour un cadeau

Compré café en una tienda especializada recién molido para probarlo y es un pasada! Me salió un café con un sabor intenso y ha sido muy rápido y sencillo el proceso. Compré también los filtros asociados y la tapa de cristal y es todo un acierto!Llevo años queriendo comprar uno porque también me parece muy decorativo y soy consumidora esporádica, así me queda una pieza que adorna la cocina y que puedo sacar cuando tengo visitas y sorprender con cafés de calidad. Súper recomendado

I bought this to use in addition to my electric drip coffee maker. I drink 1-2 mugs of coffee every morning and while the electric drip makes acceptable coffee it is more suitable for brewing larger pots. I buy whole bean coffee and grind my own beans (my next investment will be a burr grinder). I am not a coffee aficionado but I like a good fresh cup of coffee - my favorite beans are Eight O'Clock original. I saw the Chemex for the first time on a friend's social media post and was intrigued. I did debate purchasing the larger Chemex, but decided that for larger groups/company the electric drip would work better and therefore purchased the smaller unit for my daily use. I did watch a few videos before I tried it the first time and that was helpful.The coffee it produces is wonderful - it is full of flavor and has no bitterness. This model uses the half-moon filters, I do not find them difficult to use. Obviously this takes a little more effort than flipping a switch on an electric drip, but for me it is worth the effort. The difference in time/effort for me is that I have to add the water in 1-2 batches since it doesn't drip quickly enough for me to add it all at once. Note that the most you can pour into this model is 2 cups of water (2- 8 oz cups) - I suppose it is called a 3 cup because most coffee makers assume a 'cup' serving to be around 6 oz - but it is just right for me. Since there is no burner to keep the coffee warm, I usually heat my second mugful in the microwave which works very well, there is no bitterness after reheating. I wash my unit every time I use it, it's not difficult to untie the leather strap, remove the collar, clean it with a bottle brush and set it aside to air dry. The glass is dishwasher safe but since I don't run my dishwasher every day and can quickly wash it by hand that wasn't a big deal for me. I have found that I use fewer beans since purchasing the Chemex because I rarely throw any coffee down the drain - first because it tastes so good and secondly because I make only what I can drink.
