Three-Cup Classic Chemex

The original invention was made in 1941. The elegant one-piece Chemex is an hourglass-shaped container made of Borosilicate glass. It's an absolute work of art, and is displayed in New York's Corning Museum of Glass and Illinois Institute of Technology's 100 Best Design Products, and adored by its perfect marriage of function and fashion.

Its reputation for producing smooth, rich taste is due to the filters, which are thicker than those of other makers of pour-overs and block bitter oils and bitter elements from reaching your cup. Additionally the large opening in the center gives you more control over coffee flow and brewing ratio, allowing you to adjust the flavor of each coffee.

However it is true that the Chemex can be difficult for novices to master, particularly when it comes to pouring technique. If you are a beginner to the game of pouring over, consider an easier-to-use device such as a Hario V60.

Also, if you enjoy an explosive, pyrotechnically bright flavor experience then the Chemex isn't the ideal choice.
