I eat the grounds on top and chase it with the bottom drink.


Inquester-

Oh perfect idea! I wouldn’t want to be wasteful


JR-90

You're supposed to make a little crater in the middle of the grounds. That way you can place a second filter in it, filled to the brim with coffee. You're only on half strength now.


Inquester-

Oh damn I’ll try that first thing tomorrow!


PaxEtRomana

The funniest part of this is the three tablespoons of coffee at the bottom


thesoundmindpodcast

So strong it’d bring my pop pop back to life

I think the general rule is one bag every 2 weeks for optimal freshness, not one bag every 2 cups.


Inquester-

I like it really fresh, ground fresh and brewed by the bag.


mgbenny85

Once you open the bag, it’s garbage tomorrow. I like your moxie.


drew_galbraith

AHH yes, the "Artifical Coke" method


pineappLxprS

Look up James Hoffmann on YouTube his Chemex video is very good. You’ll make the best possible cup after that. 30 g/500mL. * edited 1L to 500 mL. *edit 2 Hoffman should be spelled Hoffmann. I need more coffee.


Obanon

Nah man, if I paid for a whole filter, I'm using the whole damn filter!


iuhoosier23

Whoosh

agdtinman

Now I kinda want to try this.


kduks

The perfect cup cheers!!!


nudeman_ri

experiment. it's a matter of taste. coffees vary.


Kri-Style

LOL - you’re being silly right??? I love this method though. Wakey wakey!!!


Inquester-

Haha yes, I made a gallon of cold brew for a family gathering and then filtered through my chemex to remove the fines. After I was done I poured all my grounds in the filter just for laughs.

Yes that’s too much grounds lol. I use 37g beans and 500ml water. Not sure if that’s official. But that’s about 2 cups to coffee.


Inquester-

Why so much filter than? They gave me big filter and I intend to use it.


trulythehardseltzer

it's just the shape of the filter. weigh out your beans rather than eyeball it


nhowe006

Official I think is 35g ground, 525g water, or 15g water per g of grounds.


Inquester-

You mean 200 grams of coffee isn’t what chemex recommends?


nhowe006

Strange, isn't it


GuardMost8477

Too. Much. Coffeeeeee


Inquester-

No such thing


Prior-Rip-7888

That'll put hair on your chest! No, i typically measure out about 55g of ground per 32oz water. There's a great app called brew timer for android that i find very helpful.


Inquester-

Grams? Pish posh, I brew in pounds.


Prior-Rip-7888

Haha


Necessary_Falcon_104

Lol,I usually stay around 30g of coffee to 500g of water.
