I have the 6 cups, and this one. I really love the design! I also discover that if I clean it with Cafiza, looks like a new one (I hope it works for you too)
I’ve got the 8 cup but I don’t often need to make that much so this looks like a great option. Also love the tip on the centre pour, definitely will be incorporating that 🤙
Some days ago I bought one taht is different to this one, for 2 cups and a little more, 400ml .... I try to find paper filters to this one and I couldn't find it, there is one stailess filter that is suitable for mine. But at the moment I brew with a big V60 filter. Can you help me for a recipe fot this one?
I’d probably do a 6 cup but it’s worth trying on the three cup. I’m sure you could get a great result on either by adjusting the grind. I’m usually a 16g brew or 30+
It does, however the grinds can still “stall” a brew of you don’t give them that extra hit of agitation. This will mean that the last bit of the brew takes a long time and ends up very bitter
Hi! Very helpful pouring tips! If I may ask, have you ever tried the 3 and 6 cup with the same coffee? Do you feel the different neck shapes produces a different taste? I'm on the fence, I don't need the 6 but... anything for the better taste! :)
Great question! I usually only do single serve on the 3 cup and 2 or more servings on the 6 cup so the flavour changes a bit even on account of the different recipe/grind size etc! The three cup definitely flows differently so there is some impact on the flavour for sure
Absolutely! I have a video for a larger chemex but it tells you how to scale down the recipe to anything! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-b-rWgML-DOY.html
Nope! That’s right. Think of it like water draining through sand or rocks. If it’s draining through rocks it will flow super fast. If it’s draining through sand it will flow much slower. You want to adjust the size of the particle to bring the speed to the sweet spot in the middle
The best thing I can think to suggest is to fold them an extra time before opening them up, that should make them the right angle to fit. But the filters will be thicker than intended so you may need to grind more coarsely
I bought a 3-cup one and some filters, then on RU-vid I saw that there are special filters and I bought the regular ones, googled the chemex filters and realised they don't sell those in my country 🥲
