Chemex 10 Cup

Nordic Light 10-Cup

Chemex 10 Cup Chemex by Chemex

This Chemex-attributed Nordic 10-cup method comes through Tim and Sebastian's brew guides, pushing extraction from very light roasts. Its target is pronounced sweetness, delicate aromatics, and clarity at batch scale.

Notes

Choose a very light, well-developed roast and use 97°C water. Grind finer than for a conventional large Chemex batch, but coarsen if drawdown exceeds about 6 min or the finish turns drying; thorough preheating helps sustain extraction.
