About this deal

The answer to this is no. There is no difference between these two very different-looking coffee filters.

For regular use: After rinsing, store it in a glass filled with water in the fridge to prevent mildew and foul smells.I’ve always used paper filters, just as you have probably always used paper filters. As a barista, the act of grabbing a new filter, unfolding it, and placing it in the brewer was second nature. They’re just… what we use. I’m sure there’s valid science to extracting a perfect cup of coffee (coffee is a massive industry after all), but I view coffee like wine. Everyone likes something different. And no choice is wrong. You simply like what you like. So, I’ve had six plus months of using cloth Chemex filters, and a couple of months using their V60 counterparts. What are they like? Are they better than paper? The Chemex brewing system is a simple, elegant way to make coffee at home. So simple, in fact, that all you need to use is your Chemex brewer and good quality beans. Therefore, if you’re more than one person, Ireally only recommend purchasing the six or eight cup models. If you’re three or moreadults at home, go with the ten cup model. When I fill my Eight Cup Classic Chemex full with water from my 1.2 liter kettle (approx 40 ounce), it fills my Chemex upnicely and I get about three true cups of coffee.

The Chemex filters I’m using are compatible with almost all brewers, except the 3-cup version. The 3-cup Chemex requires a smaller filter, so it fits the brewer better. Chemex is without a doubt one of the most popular methods of brewing coffee. This simple glass carafe allows for complete control over the entire brewing process, from the bean to the cup. In both cases, concerns are somewhat unfounded. You’ll be relieved to hear that Chemex is not using chlorine bleach when it comes to bleached coffee filters. Instead, they use a more environmentally friendly oxidizing process involving hydrogen peroxide to whiten the paper, followed by multiple hot water baths to remove all traces of the chemical ( 8). In contrast, the natural filters are only treated with hot water baths to remove the papery flavour. If you want one coffee filter to use with all your pour-over drippers, opt for this versatile model from Ovalware. Its simple design is compatible with all sizes of Chemex, the Hario V60 02 and 03 sizes, and most other cone-shaped drippers. It uses a silicone grip at the top to sit securely in most brewers, but you also have the option to remove it to fit different shapes and sizes of drippers.

Chemex Canada is a division of Eight Ounce Coffee. We exclusively - and proudly distribute Chemex products across Canada. All of our products are curated by coffee geeks and are barista approved™. We don't sell anything we wouldn't happily use ourselves. A nice benefit of the alternative filters is that many have the versatility to be used with other drippers as well. Some coffee filters are a great option if you also have a Hario V60 or other coffee maker with a cone filter. Why Filter Material Matters Bryman, H. (2018, October 9). Manual Equipment Maker Able Brewing in Capable New Hands. Retrieved from https://dailycoffeenews.com/2018/10/09/manual-equipment-maker-able-brewing-in-capable-new-hands/ There’s not much difference between the two cloth filters, either—the Chemex is just slightly bigger. You could probably swap them out in a pinch, if you so needed. If one REALLY prefers the Circle over Square and the Square is cheaper, one can always cut the square into the circle shape.

Now this is where all the ratios and scales typically come into play. If I were to follow the coffee experts’ advice, I’d use 40-50 grams of coffee for 700 grams of water (which is about 25 ounces). But because I didn’t want to pull out my kitchen scale every morning, what I really wanted to know was what that translated to in coffee scoops. If you love the aesthetics of the pointy filter and want to ensure you keep clean hands after brewing coffee, the square Chemex filters are right for you. When I first got my Chemex, I’ll be honest. That stuff intimidated me. I’m a smart girl with an MBA, but I sure didn’t feel like doing math equations and pulling out timers and scales every morning just to brew a cup of coffee! Yes, but it depends on the filter. You can use classic paper filters designed for pour-over coffee, which work reasonably well with Chemex brewers.One thing I absolutely love about the circle-shaped paper filter is how perfectly it fits onto my Chemex brewer for consistent extraction every time. Pre-folded circles are especially convenient if you’re looking for an easy brewing experience without any mess or spills. Chemex filters come in all shapes and forms. From oxidizing processes to water baths, a square filter with points poking out of the top for easy removal, or a circle filter paper sitting flush; they function exactly the same and it’s really a matter of individual taste. Tip: Find out if you can reuse your coffee filters in this article. Over there, I’ll go over three coffee filters and put them to the test. Conclusion Because the coffee filters are made in the same way but are simply cut differently, you won’t notice a difference in taste. While the circle and square types are more common, you’d have no choice but to use the half-moon-shaped ones if you own a 3-cup Chemex or their Funnex variant. The function remains the same but the folding technique is altogether different since you have to form a cone.

It might surprise you that your choice of a filter can significantly impact the outcome of your coffee and have implications for the environment, your wallet, and ease of brewing. This section will cover the pros and cons of paper, cloth, and metal Chemex filters. How Filters Impact Flavour Experimentation is key to finding the perfect fit for your home brewing needs. Considerfactors such as taste preferences, environmental impact, and cost considerationswhen selecting.I was a bit hesitant to try out metal filters since I didn’t want the hassle of cleaning up after every brew, but the zero-waste concept was tempting so I decided to give it a try. I also have a thermal carafe (Alfi from W-Sonoma). I tried a number of carafes and this one is spendy but keeps the coffee hot and fresh tasting. And I like the aesthetic. Three-layered construction with a special folding technique for excellent filtration without sacrificing body or taste quality. The Chemex is also dishwasher safe (with the wood handle removed), though I tend to hand wash it using the two methods above. What type of coffee do you recommend?
