When I bought my Chemex coffee brewer, I never intended for it to become my morning zen. The ritual of doing a pour-over and taking a picture, every morning has brought me solace. Ever since March of 2020, when I started working, mostly, from home, it is what I have done to help begin the day.

I use the classic 8 cup Chemex brewer which can make 40 oz of coffee. I was the paper, grind the coffee with a ratio of 3 tablespoons for every 1 cup of water at about 200 degrees.  I always get a consistent cup. The clean up is always easy and I am regularly ready for the next day’s coffee.
