Best Chemex Accessories – kettles
Smooth water flow is essential for making delicious drip coffee. And the right kettle can help you achieve this, with every cup.
Topping the list is the Barista Warrior Gooseneck Kettle. The spout, and the integrated temperature gauge, are both key design features of this kettle. The temperature gauge is a useful addition, as this allows you to brew your coffee at the optimal temperature (195-205°F). The gooseneck spout can help you to achieve consistent coffee extraction, by pouring the water in one smooth flow.
The Chemex handblown glass kettle is another fantastic option. Not only is this incredibly stylish, balancing practicality with design, but it is also very functional too. This kettle uses a silicone stopper to ensure that any steam escapes properly, limiting the heating of the glass neck.
If you’d rather choose an electric kettle, the Bonavita Kettle is one of the best options available. With a real-time temperature display and one-degree adjustable increments, you can be sure of the right brewing temperature. And this kettle also has the ability to heat and hold at the right temperature for up to 60 minutes! Ultimately, this kettle helps simplify the coffee-making process, for great tasting results.
Best handblown Chemex accessory
The handblown style is one of the key selling points for the Chemex coffee maker. If you’re looking for accessories to accentuate this, there are a couple of options to consider.
The best handblown accessory is by far the Chemex handblown mug. This serves 10oz of coffee, but it’s most distinctive feature is the style. The Chemex mug has an attractive hourglass shape, similar to the coffee maker itself, with a stylish crescent handle. The non-porous nature of the mug means that the flavor of your coffee will remain natural and rich. For delicious coffee with each and every sip.
Alternatively, the Chemex handblown Cream & Sugar set is another great option. With an elegant hourglass shape, the set is just a stylish as the mug, if not quite as essential. This is divided so that it splits perfectly into two pieces. The top part of the set is used for sugar, while the lower part holds creamer. The lower part also features a flared rim for precise pouring.
Either of these accessories are sure to look great in your kitchen, next to the Chemex coffee maker itself.
Best Organiser/stand
If you want to show off your Chemex coffee maker, and accessories, you should consider a stand or an organizer.
The Chemex wire grid is made from stainless steel. This is designed to act as a heat diffuser on your stovetop. The wire grid allows you to heat your Chemex coffee maker, or Chemex kettle, on electric stoves with exposed coils. The coffee maker can then stand on this wire grid, to help retain heat too.
For displaying your Chemex coffee maker, and accessories, we think the Hexnub coffee stand, and organizer could be a perfect choice - although we're biased the reviews speak for themselves! Made from eco-friendly bamboo, the stand perfectly complements the Chemex itself. And this includes a high-quality silicone mat that can catch any drips or spills. This is a stylish and practical addition to the home of any Chemex lover.
