A Note About Coffee & Cups
Let us break it down for you: Although 8 ounces equals a cup in the baking world, a US cup of coffee is measured at 6 ounces and a European cup of coffee is measured at 4.25 ounces. This is why we sometimes list ounces to paint a more accurate picture of capacity. And what do you know--The Chemex instructions measure coffee in 5 ounce cups--go figure!

I brew anywhere from 3 to the full 6 and every time it's consistent and delicious. There are tons of helpful videos on YouTube you can check out and find your own unique brewing method. Lot's of great tips and tricks on there (i.e., adding a pinch of salt to dry grounds for better flavor), another tip is to heat up your milk/creamer before pouring your coffee, it stays warm this way instead of going cold from the milk. I highly recommend watching those videos, I've learned so much myself! Hope this helps! :D Jul 12, 2012
Check back with us soon-- marketing is considering adding additional sizes of the Chemex to our product offering! Other options for single cups would be the Hario or Kalita dripper, or the Hario Drip Pot. Hope this helps! Dec 6, 2012

Price Value Quality Very smooth, very delicious coffee. I've been enjoying a french press for years but I love Chemex coffee even more. Thanks!

Can't wait to get my cup of coffee in the morning

Price Value Quality We love our Chemex, we thought we made the best coffee before until we drank coffee from the Chemex. A very smooth delicious cup of coffee. Did a blind taste test at a dinner party and hands down Chemex coffee was chosen over our old way of brewing.

Excellent cup of coffee
Review by Lizzy F. -
Price Value Quality Love the Chemex, we thought we were drinking good coffee until we bought the Chemex. We did a blind taste comparison against our usual brew method and picked the chemex. We then had a group of people over and did the same blind taste test against our old brew method and they all picked the Chemex coffee. Hands down a better cup of coffee, smooth, velvety, and very delicious.
