How to Brew Coffee with a Chemex

Chemex coffee is clean and light-bodied because of the thick paper filter. It rewards a slow pour and a medium-coarse grind.

Steps

Heat water to about 200°F. Fold the filter (three layers toward the spout) and rinse. Dose 1:15-1:16.5. Bloom 45 seconds. Pour in 3-4 stages for a 4-4.5 minute brew. Swirl and serve.

Sour/thin = grind finer. Bitter or slow drain = grind coarser. Papery = you skipped the rinse.
