Wow, excellent video. How does this have less than 1k views?? This is the best Chemex video I’ve seen (and there are a lot out there!). Thanks for helping me make better coffee!
Ok I was going to write a long comment but decided to keep it shorter and more simple. For me grind size,water temp and ratio is more complex than just the roast level. High grown Ethiopian coffees from Sidamo for example needs a totally different approach both in roasting and brewing because these are so dense coffees to begin with. What I like to brew with the Chemex are high grown lighter roasted coffees such as Ethiopian Sidamo/Yirgacheffe or Colombia Narino,Huila and Cauca. That is because I like to bring out the brightness in these coffees. I also think that medium/darker roasted coffees lack both in body,acidity and texture with the Chemex so for those coffees I choose different brewing methods.
That's a great point. It all comes down to personal preference. I'd 100% agree with you about the Ethiopian Yirgacheffe - a V60 or Chemex can accentuate those brighter/floral flavors. For me, the darker/medium roasts I prefer going for a french press.
I shouldn't think you need to. Try to adjust the grind so that you get the correct extraction time. It would be great to hear if you've found any difference though. Keep us posted!
Let me know your Chemex recipes or different techniques in the comments 😁✨
Honey, you had this-here 73-years "Old-fart's" FULL attention as soon as you said the word "BUTTON"!
I just LOVE the way you sound!!!!
✨🤗😘🤗✨
Thanks Michel, I hope you find the videos we put out useful!
She’s back!

Does grind coarseness (or any other variable) change if I’m brewing 750ml?

May i ask the name of your scale?
Hey, it was actually one I picked up when I was in Singapore and can't remember the name, it's been pretty reliable though!
