An iconic brewer with a timeless design, the Chemex lives on kitchen counters around the world and has for decades. It’s housed in the MOMA permanent design collection—and stays in heavy rotation around here, too.
The pour-over flow is so even and smooth that my morning coffee tastes noticeably cleaner than with my old plastic dripper. I love how the wood collar makes the hot glass safe to grip while I’m brewing, and it looks stunning sitting on the counter.
The wood collar makes it feel almost like a piece of furniture, not just a coffee maker, and the pour-over is so clean and smooth. I’ve had mine on the counter for a few weeks now, and it’s already the first thing guests comment on.
The wood collar is a nice touch—it stays cool to the touch even when the glass is hot, which makes pouring feel secure. Only gripe is that it's a bit fussy to clean around the collar, but the coffee it makes is worth the extra care.
