Chemex Wood Collar Brewer
8 cup — $47
The Chemex is our preferred brew method at Red Rooster Coffee Roaster and easily brews up enough for 3 or 4 people. Made simply from non-porous glass, it brews coffee without imparting any flavors of its own. On permanent display at MOMA NY and other fine museums, it is truly a work of art. The Chemex Coffeemaker has remained unchanged for 70 years and is still manufactured at company headquarters in Western Massachusetts. Uses Pre-folded Filters, sold separately.

Chemex
Form meets function in the classically beautiful Chemex brewer. Grind size is critical when brewing with this method since the brew bed can get large. Use a coarser grind to experience bright and floral fruit notes.
