Clarity by design.
Few brewers have remained unchanged for generations like the Chemex. Did you know the Chemex Coffeemaker is prominently displayed in the permanent collection at the Modern Museum of Art (MoMA) in New York City?! It's recognized as one of the most well designed products of the last century. Cool, huh?
The Chemex Classic 8-Cup Coffeemaker is built from non-porous borosilicate glass — a chemically inert material that won’t absorb odors, oils, or residue. There are no moving parts. No mechanical components. Just glass and gravity.
Simple construction. Enduring performance.
Why It Brews So Clean
The hourglass shape encourages steady extraction, while the thick bonded paper filters (sold separately) remove excess oils and fine sediment.
The result is a cup known for its clarity — bright, balanced, and free of bitterness.
If you prefer a lighter body and distinct flavor separation, this brewer delivers.
For best results, use genuine Chemex filters (sold separately).
Built to Last
Made from heat- and shatter-resistant borosilicate glass, the Chemex is designed for daily use — and will last indefinitely with proper care.
Coffee can be covered and refrigerated directly in the flask for reheating without significant flavor loss.
The polished wood collar and leather tie provide insulation for safe handling and add a timeless finish to the design.
