Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 4 scoops ground coffee (medium coarse consistency)
- 40 ounces boiling water
Instructions
- 1
Wet the filter. Place the filter in your Chemex and pour a little hot water to wet the filter. This warms the glass and removes any paper taste from the filter. Dump out this water.
- 2
Add the coffee grounds. Add the coffee grounds to the pre-moistened filter.
- 3
Brew the coffee. Pour just enough water to fully saturate the grounds and let the coffee expand and bloom for 30 to 45 seconds. Then pour the rest of the water in a slow, circular fashion, until you've filled the top nearly full. As the water starts to drain, continue adding the remaining water.

Enjoy your coffee. Remove the filter and grounds from your Chemex, and enjoy your freshly brewed cup of coffee.
