Brewing Guide

Follow this simple step-by-step brewing guide.

location

STEP 1

Grind coffee

Measure out 40g of coffee & grind to Chemex coarseness, resembling sea salt.

location

STEP 2

Prep filter

Unfold the filter and place it into your Chemex.

location

STEP 3

Add tea leaves to the hot water

Pour some hot water over the filter to ensure the filter gets wet and "washed out", swirl around and pour out, to remove any papery taste.

location

STEP 4

Put in coffee grounds

Place the ground coffee into the filter and lightly shake to flatten the grounds on top to allow for a more even pour.

STEP 5

Coffee bloom

Using the gooseneck kettle, in spiral motions, cover the grounds with 100g of water, wait for approximately 40 seconds until the water has mostly dripped through and the grounds have cratered. This process helps to release gases and allows nuanced flavors to develop.

STEP 6

Brew

In slow and steady spiral motions, pour the water over the grounds in two 200 gram increments. Once all the grounds are wet, pour lightly in the middle until all the remaining water has been poured. Wait until the dripping has come to a stop and the extraction is finished. Remove the filter & grounds. The brew should have taken you around 4 to 5 minutes. If the brew was too fast, use a finer grind or a slower pour rate next time. If it was too slow, use a coarser grind and a faster pour rate.

STEP 7

Enjoy

Enjoy and share the coffee with your friends, or drink it all by yourself, if you dare.
