Can a thing be valuable? To me, yes--if it represents great design, and/or if it has become part of the story of my life.
This #Chemex carafe kettle is both. I bought it in my 20s, and used it this morning to boil water for iced tea. Handblown, the chimney is also a handle, kept cool enough for bare hands by the "steam stopper" that sits inside. The second photo is from 1982, where it's in the passive solar house I built in 1980 in #NormanOklahoma

And some light extra context. Proponent of #FOSS, but anti-AI. Big #coffee enthusiast, I prefer light roasts and love trying beans from many different origins. I mostly brew with #aeropress or #chemex, but also pull #espresso shots from time to time. Also a proud #BunnyDad! :flipdog:

I prefer to have an expert barista make me a cappuccino, but this reliable setup produces pretty decent coffee when I’m too lazy to leave the house. I actually like hand-grinding the beans, let’s me pretend I’m exercising.
Things that I do not need, but I would have fun playing with: A Chemex pour over coffee maker. They are beautiful, would enhance my goal to slow down and enjoy simple things, and make me smile every time I see one. They are espensive though, and this one will be staying on the shelf! #chemex #coffee #BaltimoreCoffeeAndTea

Anyone have recommendations for a new #chemex style brewer? I am in need and the Brim is out of stock 🥲

Huh! I’d been wondering! (TL;DR It marks the middle of the carafe to make it easy to identify when to stop adding water.) #coffee
Been lazy with my #coffee game for a long time, but today I want to be #productive so I’m breaking out the #Chemex for hopefully the best cup I’ve had in months ☕️
It's been a minute since I dusted off the #Chemex, and it was "just aight." #coffee #barista #coworking
