Chemex Coffee Maker

The Chemex Coffee Maker is famous for making a perfect coffee: clear, pure, flavorful, and without bitterness or sediment, thanks to its special filters, made of paper slightly thicker than usual filters that help retain the tiny sediments the coffee might have, while allowing the water to filter at the precise speed to achieve the best result.

The coffee obtained is so delicious that it can even be stored in the fridge, to reheat later without losing its flavor. Thus, the Chemex coffee maker provides you with coffee to enjoy immediately, but also to make iced coffee or to use in your recipes.

But Chemex is more than a coffee maker: it is a piece of art, which is even displayed at the MoMa museum in New York (besides having won numerous contests and being exhibited in other shows) for its perfect combination of functionality and design. It is elegant, made from a single piece in the shape of a high-quality hourglass with non-porous, heat-resistant glass. It features a polished wooden collar and a leather tie. The collar acts as a heat-insulating handle, besides giving it a unique and characteristic touch.

You can choose your coffee maker according to the number of coffee cups you want to make: for 3 cups, 6, 8, or 10 cups (each cup refers to a long coffee cup, 145 ml).

You can find Chemex-Bonded coffee filters here.

Why we like the Chemex Coffee Maker

1. Preparing and drinking coffee from the Chemex coffee maker is a luxury for the senses. From the moment you hold the coffee maker in your hands to the last sip of coffee. Even if you drink it much later.
2. With it, you only drink coffee. The sediments stay in the filter.
3. It is a work of art. Beautiful, delicate, made from a single piece, ideal for coffee and to admire wherever you have it.
