The Chemex coffeemaker is an elegant, one-piece, hourglass shaped vessel made of high quality, heat resistant glass. The traditional model comes to you with a polished wood collar and leather tie. The collar serves as an insulated handle around the middle of the coffeemaker.
Few products in this century can match the flawless blending of design and function of the Chemex. Its visual elegance has earned it a place in the permanent collection of New York's Museum located in Corning, New York. The Chemex coffeemaker was also selected by the Illinois Institute of Technology as one of the 100 best designed products of modern times.
The Chemex coffeemaker, together with Chemex-Bonded Coffee Filter, makes perfect coffee. Clear, pure, flavorful and without bitterness or sediment every time. The coffee only comes in contact with the scientifically designed filter and non-porous glass. With the Chemex method, you can make coffee as strong as you like without bitterness. Perfect for iced coffee and coffee flavoring for gourmet recipes. Because of its purity, Chemex brewed coffee can be covered and stored in the refrigerator for reheating...without losing its flavor!

The Chemex Story
Chosen as one of the 100 best designed
products of modern times. The Chemex Coffeemaker is found in the
permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, Smithsonian and the
Philadelphia Museum of Art and fine gourmet stores everywhere.
This merging of form and function came out of Chemist Peter
Schlumbohm's taste for fine flavor. Applying the techniques used to
insure laboratory purity, he set out to brew what may have been the
first cup of truly, clear, full-bodied coffee - free of undesirable
fats, oils, sediment and most of all...bitterness.
For five
decades the coffeemaker that was once available to only a circle of
acquaintances has been enjoyed by connoisseurs around the world. But,
the Chemex coffeemaker's greatest distinction is that once it brews
coffee to the most exacting personal requirements, the filter and
grounds are removed in a single package, leaving the carafe as at home
with fine china as it is with the first cup of morning coffee.
