Description
Curvaceous, complex, layered and smooth
Elegant in an easy to use pour-over design, the Chemex produces bright, crisp and beautifully extracted coffee. It’s also large enough to brew for more than one person at a time.
Specifications
- Made of non-porous Borosilicate glass which will not absorb odors or chemical residues
- CHEMEX pour-over allows coffee to be covered and refrigerated for reheating without losing flavor
- Simple, easy to use with timeless, elegant design
The Chemex is perhaps the most elegant pour-over home brewing system. Striking with a wood collar, the Chemex is an all-in-one system that functions as a pour-over (using a paper filter) but also offers a beautiful server that the coffee feeds directly into. It’s also large enough to produce coffee for up to 4 people, which means that unlike a lot of other single-serving methods you’ll only have to do it once, unless everyone wants a second cup, which somehow always seems to happen.
