What you need:

• Chemex

• Chemex filter

• Grinder

• Coffee

• Hot Water

• Scale

• Timer

• Stir stick

recommended Measurements:

• 40g of coffee (6 tablespoons)

• 640g water

• Grind: coarse

Brew time: 4 - 4½ minutes

Yields: 23 ounces

1.Fold & Rinse

• Fold filter according to the package

• Put the filter in the Chemex with the thick side on the spout

• Rinse the filter with hot water

  • Rinsing the filter gets rid of paper flavour and it also preheats the vessel

• Discard the water

 2.Measure & Grind

• Measure out 40g of coffee or roughly 6 tablespoons

• Grind the coffee to a coarse grind

• Add the coffee to the filter

• Gently give the Chemex a shake to flatten out the bed before brewing

• Place on scale and tare scale to 0

3.Saturate & Stir

• Start timer and pour hot water over the coffee, just enough to cover it, pouring in circular motions

  • Pouring in circles makes for a more consistent brew and allows water to filter through the coffee and paper evenly

• Stir the coffee to ensure full saturation

• Let it bloom for 30 seconds

  • Allowing the coffee to bloom removes excess carbon dioxide resulting in a more even extraction and eliminates unwanted sourness in the coffee

4.Pour Continuously

• Pour water slowly in a circular motion starting from the centre moving outwards and then spiralling back towards the centre until you reach the weight of 350g

• Pour over the dark spots and avoid the edges of the filter

• Let it set for about 45 seconds

• Continue to pour the remaining water until the weight reaches 640g, using the same circular motion while avoiding the edges of the filter

5. Remove & Enjoy

• At around the 4:00-4:30 mark, your coffee should be fully brewed. It makes about 20 ounces of coffee

• Dump out the filter and enjoy your freshly brewed cup of Moja coffee!
