Weigh out your coffee, we always recommend 60g coffee to 1 litre of water. For example: 400ml brew = 24g coffee
Using fresh water, boil your kettle, fold the filter paper into your Chemex and flush with hot water to pre heat the Chemex and remove any papery taste. Discard the water
Pour the ground coffee into the Chemex paper and gently shake to even out the coffee bed
Start a timer then begin to bloom your coffee by pouring enough water to just cover and wet all the coffee and leave to steep for 30 seconds
At 30 seconds begin to gradually add the rest of the water until all your water is added by 1 minute 30 seconds
Allow the coffee to drain through the filter. If your grind is correct this should take approximately 5 minutes in total
Pour and enjoy
CHIPP TIP ⭐️
If you don't have scales a typical coffee scoop will give you roughly 15-17g of ground coffee.
ABOUT THE CHEMEX 🧐
The Chemex is arguably the most beautiful of all coffee brewers, so it's no wonder it's still as iconic as the day it was released. Invented in 1941 by Peter Schlumbohm, the design of the Chemex has remains largely unchanged. It's easy to see why - the single glass design allows you to brew coffee without any taints - creating flavourful coffee each time you brew.
