Classic Series, Pour-Over Glass Coffeemaker, 6-Cup - Exclusive Packaging, Pack of 1

I have been wanting to buy it since 2017, but didn’t. It is pricey thats why. I usually drink espresso and thought investing money on an espresso machine was smarter. And I made a decision I did not regret. But now I finally bought it. It is still pricey, but I wish bought it earlier. Let me share with you what I experienced, hoping it will help you make a call whether to spend your hard-earned money on it or not. 1. There is no “exclusive” packing. I dont know why the description says that, just a decent packet, not packed well but luckily it didn’t break. There is an ‘80 years’ logo on it maybe that is what they meant by “exclusive” packaging. Silly but Who knows! 2. It is expensive and unfortunately delicate (very), so please keep that in mind. 3. I have given only 4 stars out of 5 for ease of use. Don’t get me wrong there is no rocket science there. But it is methodically complex compared to many other methods of coffee making. But if you dont mind spending a few extra minutes it is quite easy nevertheless. 4. I am trying this ‘third wave coffee beans’ for the first time, with Chemex, but I tried it first with Hario (the inexpensive plastic one), and also with DeLonghi espresso machine( different grind size of course). It tastes the best with Chemex. They should partner with Chemex because it tasted very ordinary, if not bad with the machine. So Third Wave does very well with Chemex. 5. I spent 5000 on it. But I am not regretting, there is something about the taste of the coffee that came out of it, you can taste the subtle notes really well. And the aftertaste is divine. Trust me I always thought (never loudly) Americans have no taste for good coffee, unlike Italians. I really dislike the Starbucks’ coffee and honestly think its a sin to serve such bad coffee to humans. But this Chemex is every bit of worth its hype. And they do know good coffee. No wonder it is one of the 100 best designs in the world. Wow! I have lived in a more sophisticated part of the world where one is spoilt with coffee beans’ choices. Unfortunately, in India finding good coffee beans is a struggle. But this Chemex design should be marketed for regions like ours even more as it brings the best taste out of the coffee. I didn’t do anything fancy that they suggest (they have a leaflet, useful I would say) but will try to be more accurate next time (if time permits) and will also try brewing tea as the company suggests. But for now I am extremely happy with it. Try it if and when your budget permits, it is a marvellous investment if you start your day with coffee or drink coffee many times throughout the day. I know for sure this will be on my shelf till the day I breathe (along with my espresso machine), and no I am not exaggerating.

Unless you want to spend several times the cost of a chemex on a fancy espresso machine, it doesn't really get much better than this.

Ergonomic design

ずっと欲しかったのですが、これまではコーヒーマシーンに頼ってました。しかし、道具を揃えたり手入れすることも覚悟して、今回臨みました。濾紙も専用を使ってますが、本当に理科の実験をしているみたいで、コーヒーが抽出作業を時間をかけて行うと美味しく淹れられるんだとわかりました。かっこいいだけじゃないんですね。お菓子教室の先生が淹れてくれてた時から憧れていましたが、お客さまをもてなすのにもとても良いと思います。

Muito linda. Clássica e estilo.

Great to find - genuine product.

Produto sensacional. Recomendo. Usado juntamente com o filtro apropriado da chemex, faz um ótimo café. Não sou expert no assunto, mas é nítido que o sabor fica mais límpido, acho que retém um pouco do amargor. Bonito, prático, e fácil de limpar.

I was looking for a coffee maker that was more compact and RV travel-friendly than my Nespresso Citiz. It was down to either Aeropress or Chemex but after a chat with my son (who has and uses both), Chemex seemed the better option. While I'm still experimenting, I will say that you do get a much smoother cup of coffee - there is just no bitter/acidic taste. In fact, I've rewarmed my coffee in the microwave (sorry gourmet coffee folks) and it still tastes great. I'm admittedly a bit nervous of keeping it warm on our flame stove but I'll likely try it at some point. I should also note that I am using the original Chemex natural filters for brewing. I love the wooden collar - little awkward to remove for washing but I quickly got the hang of taking it off/putting it back on. It does a great job of insulating your fingers to pour coffee while adding some real flair. I find the brewer washes up really easily but I always rinse it out immediately when it is empty. Some reviewers have mentioned the fragility of the Chemex but I find it very sturdy; it's been bumped a couple of times with no issues. Now let's talk design - did you know that the iconic Chemex has been exhibited in the MOMA? Even in my humble RV it looks beautiful on the counter with its simple elegance. I'm very happy with this purchase.
