What size cups for you use for measurement? 

We measure our cup size in 5 ounce increments.   

Are the coffeemakers dishwasher safe? 

Yes!  The glass coffeemakers can be put into the dishwasher once the collar and rawhide are removed.  However, to avoid breakage please be sure that the carafe is secure and not bumping up next to any other dishes. You can also hand wash the carafes using this coffeemaker brush (link). 

Why do some carafes have wooden collars while some have glass handles? 

This is purely an aesthetic difference in the design and does not change the functionality of the coffeemaker.   

Can I make less coffee than the size of the coffeemaker? 

Yes!  You can make up to the ounce amount of the size coffeemaker you have or make less.  Just adjust your coffee and water recipe to brew however many cups you would like. 

How to Use your CHEMEX

Step 1. Get into the grind
Grind your favorite whole bean coffee to a medium coarse ground.

Step 2. Filter up
Open a FP-2 or FP-2N 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.

Step 3: The scoop
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.

Step 4: Let it bloom
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”.

Step 5: First pour
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).

Step 6: Brew on
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.

Step 7: Toss the filter
Once the desired amount of coffee is brewed, lift the filter with spent grounds out of the brewer and discard. Our filters are biodegradable and compostable.

Final Step: Enjoy the perfect cup
Pour your freshly made coffee into your CHEMEX® mug and indulge in the flavor.
