Chemex Coffee Maker Filter Papers, Pack of 100

Product Information

Works well with all types of roasts- even tea! Allowing you to make the perfect and most pure cup, every time The cloth filter in the V60 is actually quite similar to its paper peer: a reliably nuanced brew with consistent depth and body.

Because the coffee filters are made in the same way but are simply cut differently, you won’t notice a difference in taste. 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. Unlike many metal coffee filters made from a simple metal mesh, the Kone is made from a single piece of stainless steel that has been photochemically etched with a pattern of holes. And that pattern is no fluke. Engineering models were used to determine that their specific pattern of square and round holes is the best way to promote an even flow of water through the ground coffee. A polymer ring at the top of the cone enables it to sit comfortably in your brewer. If you’re buying Chemex paper filters, you can choose either the bleached (white) or unbleached (brown) option. Coffee lovers prefer bleached paper filters because the natural alternatives can add a woody or papery taste to the coffee. And when it comes to the subtly flavoured light roasts often brewed with a Chemex, this can be off-putting. On the other hand, bleached filters carry the stigma of the word “bleach,” which worries consumers from health and environmental standpoints.

FAQs

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. Disposable paper filters are for a single use, so they generate the most waste. However, Chemex filters are biodegradable and compostable.

HOW DO YOUBREW COFFEE WITH THE CHEMEX? This filter has a double filtration feature, which keeps more fine particles out than the Able Kone.

The decision will ultimately come down to personal preference, but if you’re looking for some guidance on which one is better suited for your needs, consider these points. 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. Alright, here’s the most annoying part of these cloth filters: cleaning. And it’s really not that annoying. If you’re a fan of ultra light-bodied, delicate and subtle coffees, then the cloth filter might not be for you. Personally, while I like the classic Chemex brew, I’ve been impressed by the consistency and depth of flavor that can be achieved with the cloth filter. 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?
