Chemex

Invented in 1941 by eccentric chemist, Dr. Peter Schlubohm. The CHEMEX is an iconic brewer with a design that is both elegant and functional. Schlubohm’s understanding of chemistry led him to invent the double-bonded CHEMEX paper filters for a perfect extraction every time. The CHEMEX lives in the Museum of Modern Art, and it is showcased as one of the 100 best designed products of modern time.
