Invented in the mid-20th century by the German chemist Peter J. Schlumbohm, the so-called Chemex coffee maker has a special place for those who enjoy clean, bright coffee with sweet notes. Simple and elegant, the Chemex is used with heavy paper filters that better retain the oils suspended by the coffee during the extraction process.

Tip
Make a small hole in the coffee before pouring the water so the infusion is more uniform in all coffee grains.

If the coffee grind is very delicate the water stagnates; if the grind is very coarse, the dripping is very fast. Conclusion: grind should be neither too fine nor coarse.
