Twelve days of BonLife: Day 5
On the Twelve Days of BonLife we share a new specialty coffee gift idea every day! Today is Day 5, and we’re talking about a timeless coffee product that we and our customers are dedicated to: the Chemex.
There are so many reasons to love the Chemex!
First of all, let’s talk about the way it looks. The Chemex was invented in the 1940s, and its vintage look is part of its appeal. It has won awards for its design and is featured in several museums. More importantly, though, it looks great in your kitchen or right on your table alongside a home-cooked breakfast! But there is more to its design than just cool looks. The Chemex is made of a special non-porous glass. It won’t absorb old coffee flavors, giving you a clean cup every single time you use it! It can also handle the heat: you can keep your pot of coffee warm on the stovetop while you sip on it all morning. Plus the pretty wooden collar protects your hands from the hot glass when you pour yourself a cup of coffee.
Really smart design, huh?
The Chemex was designed by a chemist to be easy to use and to make a scientifically perfect cup of coffee. The filters are specially designed to filter out bitterness, acidity, and sediments. The design is simple, easy to use, and intended to perfectly extract flavor from coffee. The result is a pure clean cup of coffee. We find that it’s a great way to taste a coffee for the first time: the tasting notes of a coffee are so clear when you brew it on a Chemex!
It’s not just us: the Chemex has been a crowd favorite in the specialty coffee industry for years, and it’s not going away anytime soon. Our customers cannot get enough of the Chemex. So, if you’re looking for a way to treat your specialty coffee lover to a new brew method, this is an excellent option!
