4. Chemex

The Chemex is a fantastic choice if you want an automatic coffee maker that has a timeless, unique design. It will look stunning on your counter. It's a classic within the world of coffee, and it looks as stunning now as it did when Peter Schlumbohm designed it in 1936.

Chemex utilizes a different version of the traditional Pour-over style of brewing that's popular with coffee aficionados, allowing you to have complete control over your cup. The non-porous glass flask imparts no unwanted flavor and is simple to use. It is also perfect for people who have little space, since it is smaller than other filter coffee makers.

Chemex requires some practice and patience, so it's best for those who are committed to controlling every aspect of the drink.

The Chemex has a drawback in that it takes a long time to make a coffee. This makes it less than ideal for busy coffee drinkers or those with an extremely busy schedule. If you're willing to put in the extra effort can be rewarding and result in an espresso that has plenty of flavor.

The neck and pouring spouts could be difficult to clean. This is particularly relevant to the spout that is small at the top of the Chemex. It can be hard to keep clean since it's where coffee oils and other contaminants are drippy. However, this isn't a deal-breaker for the majority of people.

The last thing you need to know about a Chemex filter coffee maker is that it is not the best choice for people who like dark roasts. The thick filter paper tends to eliminate bitterness from darker roasts. You'll need to work on it a bit to make the most of your Chemex. If you're able to master the process, it's a great alternative for those who like nuanced light roast coffees.
