Chemex Coffee Maker Filter Papers, Pack of 100

Product Information

Unlike many metal coffee filters made from a simple metal mesh, the Kone is made from a single piece of stainless steel that has been photochemically etched with a pattern of holes. And that pattern is no fluke. Engineering models were used to determine that their specific pattern of square and round holes is the best way to promote an even flow of water through the ground coffee. A polymer ring at the top of the cone enables it to sit comfortably in your brewer. As for the square versus circular filters, there’s really no difference. Though I do find the little points on the square make it easy to lift out. And of course I went with natural, because I always choose unbleached anything if possible. What is the best Chemex grind size? As for using this filter specifically in combination with Chemex, there were no concerns at all. The silicone ring around the top kept everything securely in place while also being super simple to remove when cleaning became necessary. The best coffee for Chemex is the one that tastes best to you. Chemex is known for producing a clean cup that highlights bright acidity and subtle flavours. For this reason, many people enjoy lighter roasts brewed in a Chemex because it reveals the complexity of their taste profile.

Step Five: Pour just enough water to fully saturatethe grounds and let the coffee expand and bloom for 30-45 seconds. Learn how to brew coffee in your Chemex!

The Chemex is also dishwasher safe (with the wood handle removed), though I tend to hand wash it using the two methods above. What type of coffee do you recommend?

Chemex vs Alternative Brands

The answer to this is no. There is no difference between these two very different-looking coffee filters. If you’re worried about the environmental impact of your coffee habit, one simple way to make a change is to switch to these organic hemp coffee filters. Like cotton filters, they brew a delicious cup with a medium body, robust aroma, and clean flavours. But compared to cotton, they are twice as strong and require half as much water to grow ( 5). That means hemp filters are even better for the planet and will last longer – saving you money in the long run. Only very small grind adjustments are needed when setting up—once again a slightly finer grind when compared to the paper filter is a good place to start—and I’ve found the brews to be forgiving of experiments/mistakes. Cleaning & MaintenanceIt might surprise you that your choice of a filter can significantly impact the outcome of your coffee and have implications for the environment, your wallet, and ease of brewing. This section will cover the pros and cons of paper, cloth, and metal Chemex filters. How Filters Impact Flavour If you have residue on the bottom or feel you need a deeper clean, fill your Chemex halfway full with ice and a quarter full with water. Add a few tablespoons of salt and a couple drops of liquid soap. Swirl and slosh this around until it’s all bubbly, then pour it out and rinse. The Chemex brewer is famous for (among other things) the coffee it produces: light, clean, with a delicate body. This can put people off— thin is the criticism I’ve heard leveled most at the Chemex brew—but in general it’s a very popular brew method.
