Use Info
- Grind your favorite whole bean coffee to a medium coarse ground
- Open a CHEMEX Bonded Coffee Filter into a cone shape so that one side of the cone has three layers, and place it into the top of the CHEMEX Coffeemaker. The thick three-layer portion should cover the pouring spout
- Put one rounded tablespoon of ground coffee for every 5 oz. cup into the filter cone. Feel free to use more if you prefer it stronger; our CHEMEX Coffeemaker brewing process eliminates bitterness and acidity
- Once you have brought the appropriate amount of water to a boil, remove it from the heat and allow it to stop boiling vigorously. Pour a small amount of water in a circular motion over the coffee grounds to wet them, and wait for about 30 seconds for the grounds to “bloom”
- After the grounds bloom, slowly pour the water over the grounds while keeping the water level well below the top of the CHEMEX Coffeemaker (a quarter inch or more)
- Slowly pour the remaining water over the grounds, using a circular or back-and-forth motion as you pour to ensure an even saturation of the coffee
- Once the desired amount of coffee is brewed, lift the filter with spent grounds out of the brewer and discard
