Chemex coffee question

Chemex coffee question

minimum dose size?

I use the Hario switch to brew my coffee and am trying to reduce my caffeine consumption. Hence I would like to brew smaller cups of coffee. I am currently using 10g of coffee with 160g of water. (1:16 Ratio) I am wondering if there is a minimum amount of coffee...

Chemex coffee question

Hey all,

This is probably a dumb question, but I'm newish to coffee (I've been drinking it for about 8 months now). I was wondering if you could clarify something for me about the Chemex recipe for one cup. The Chemex brewing instructions says to pour 50 g of water for the bloom. After the 30 second bloom, it says to pour until you reach 355 g (or 12 oz) of water. I was curious if that includes the 50 g poured for the bloom. In other words, do I tare my weight after the bloom and THEN pour 355 g? Or do I not tare and pour until I reach 355 g, so I'd be pouring an additional 305 g? Does that question make sense? I'm probably being a perfectionist here, but getting the *perfect* cup is such an art, and it's one I enjoy 🙂

Additional question for any Denver people that may be reading: what temp have you found to be the perfect brewing temp at this elevation?

Thanks in advance for the help! I have major respect for all you coffee aficionados 🙂
