Chemex Users? (Coffee Thread)

I've been a casual coffee drinker since college (13 years ago), usually a couple of cups a day. I buy decent coffee but nothing exceptional. I drink crap (dunking donuts) at work every day because that's what we buy and brew for all employees. Long story short, after having the absolute best cup of coffee in my life last month, brewed by a barista using a Chemex, and a nice trip to Costa Rica that included plenty of quality coffee, I think I'm about to order a Chemex and start my journey towards coffee snobery. So...anyone out there using a Chemex or pour-overs? Any advice on what to buy? Beuler?

I didn't know dunkin doughtnuts was crap :(

 

 

I've been brewing the pre-ground Starbucks French Roast because it was on sale at Harris-Teeter.  I got into coffee about 4 years ago and am a full fledged addict now.  I drink about 2-3 cups per day, straight black. 

 

I suppose it's about time to step my game up and dabble on the finer side of coffee.  Those Chemex look nice.

I've been drinking it for five years now where I work pretty much every morning. I just can't take it anymore. I know plenty of people that love DD coffee.

Never understood the appeal of DD coffee.  Its ok, but nothing more.

 

I used to have a Chemex that my parents gave me when I first moved out. They had used it when they were first married.  It would be about 50 years old today but like a young dumb ass I threw it away and got a Mr. Coffee maker instead.  They have Chemex on display/for sale at the MOMA.

      This is what I mean. I am not some huge BY fan. I honestly don't look at QBs the way a lot of you guys do. Right or wrong, I've always looked at them as just another cog in the machine. Didn't want BY or even a trade up for a QB in 2023. We saw in the Super Bowl how important the rest of the team is on any given Sunday. Now... so PFF, who has no reason to prop up BY, says he's first in 2 stat lines and Panthers "fans" are arguing why it's either wrong or a made up stat just to make BY look good. Even though they have multiple stat lines where he's literally last in. Like 32nd in the NFL. Some he's even lower than 32. Take a step back. Try to objectively self analyze. This is just not sensible.  Same thing I see with other teams' fans and their QBs though. We analyze every single throw on every single play. For every other QB, most here are only using highlights to judge. Makes a difference. We saw Stafford miss throws when they played Carolina - both games. We saw Love throw crap up when they played Carolina. We saw Dak miss throws when they played Carolina - and Pickens was putting on a SHOW. We saw Josh Allen win a game with 163 yards passing against Carolina, but if BY does it he's crap and can't pass for 200 yards. Gents... come on.
