For the solo coffee enthusiast who desires both iconic design and an exceptionally clean cup, the 3-Cup Chemex is a perfect choice. We recommend this Glass Handle version because it delivers the full, legendary Chemex experience in a compact form. It combines the brewer's celebrated aesthetic and brewing science into a vessel perfectly scaled for a personal ritual, ensuring your solo cup is as elegant and delicious as a full pot.
The Chemex is engineered for an unparalleled clean cup, a direct result of two key elements. First, the entire brewer is crafted from a single piece of non-porous borosilicate glass, which imparts no flavor of its own. Second, the proprietary half-moon paper filters designed for this model remove virtually all sediment and undesirable oils. This unique combination is what produces the famously bright, clean, and nuanced cup profile, perfected for a single serving.
Brewing with this Chemex is a simple and satisfying personal ritual. The all-in-one design means you brew directly into the beautiful 1-pint carafe you will drink or serve from. The integrated glass handle adds a touch of modern, seamless elegance. It is a durable, timeless tool that serves as a stunning piece on your countertop, honoring the craft of coffee with its own celebrated design, even when you're just brewing for yourself.
