How to brew:

- Add filter (3 layers to spout, 1 layer to rear)
- Rinse filter with hot water and dispose of water
- With chemex on scale, add coffee and tare.
- Start timer and pour 100 grams of water on coffee (enough to cover grounds)
- Wait 45 seconds- allow coffee to bloom
- Pour the remaining water until the 2 minute mark- slow concentric circles from the inside-out, and then outside in.
- When you are finished pouring, the remaining coffee should take about 1 min to drip out.
