I have had my Chemex for years and love it. It was a gift from my wife’s grandfather, lord only knows how long he had it. I love making coffee for people with it and their reaction of “wow this is good” is always an ego boost. 👍🏽☕️

I'd have coffee with her anytime! Thank you for sharing

[@volcanicacoffee]

Any time!

[@kjvasquez]

Chemex team here, easier to learn, clear coffee, taste is great. It is just way to good and enjoyable.

[@volcanicacoffee]

Couldn't agree more!

[@nickdagamer]

You are so lovely. These vids are great.

[@volcanicacoffee]

Glad you like them!

[@kasandrazotiadi4555]

Thanks! Great video! So less acidity when using v60 or Chemex?

[@volcanicacoffee]

Less acidity with the Chemex

[@kasandrazotiadi4555]

@@volcanicacoffee Thank you 😊 🙏

[@Nihil847]

V60 for me, but Chemex does come super close

[@volcanicacoffee]

Yeah, since getting into specialty coffee, I love using both for different coffees

[@volcanicacoffee]

@volcanicacoffee Or even getting different results with the same coffee!

I find it fascinating that there are so many videos on brewing methods yet so few on coffee. I know this theory is kind of edgy, but I'd go as far and claim that the choice of cofee is even more important than whether you decide to brew in the Chemex or in the V60. I have many coffee brewers at home (aeropress, french press, metal filter, V60, Melita, Chemex etc.)- but sometimes, when I buy coffee that just isn't that good, neither of them will make a good cup wheras when I buy good coffee, it will most certainly always taste awesome. Yes, it will taste a bit diffetent and if I've found a good bag of beans I want to try all methods with it. But at the end of the day, it's really the coffee...

Couldn't agree with you more Max. Good quality coffee is definitely the most important factor. How you brew can bring out or accentuate certain flavours of the coffee.
