Need to talk about coffee stuff today guys. Gotta keep my mind off the news as much as I can.

I still use my chemex for washed multicup brews. I think it excels at this, and I love the asthetic. I have a handmade wool cozy for it and a 3d printed lid to keep these larger brews warm though and while the cozy is protective, I do worry about breaking this fragile brewer.

It seems like the Miir directly addresses the thermal and fragility concerns and still allows use of the chemex filters. Seems hard to argue with that.

Other than nostalgia and maybe not wanting to spend a cool $80 right now, any reason to hold on to the Chemex?

    Miir is a company…what brewer are you talking about? Not that it matters, because the correct answer is still the same: Use the hario v60 switch

        Oh my bad. I didn’t realize “new standard” was the name of the brewer, i thought you were asking if it would be the “new standard” way to make coffee. 😩
