Brewing Tip TO REMEMBER
BREWING TIP NO. 1: When placing the lter in the chemex, be sure to have the side with three layers against the spout. After rinsing the lter, pour the rinse water out. Check to make sure the lter is still suctioned to the wall of the cone, with no air pockets.
BREWING TIP NO. 2: When pouring, you should look for dark spots on the surface of the slurry. Target your pour to submerge these spots which will ensure that all the co ee in the cone is saturated. When this is achieved, continue the pour directly in the middle to agitate the slurry.
GRIND TIP: All grinders will produce a mix of course and fine particles - none are perfect, however, burr grinders produce far more uniformity. If your resulting cup is too strong and/or bitter, adjust your grind slightly coarser. If it is too weak and/or sour, adjust slightly finer.
