Bringing an old thread back to life.
Just bought a Chemex. You know...that glass thing that needs paper filters in it.

Only used it twice so far, and making plain old black coffee.
First cup (yesterday) was pretty strong.
Tried again this morning with less coffee and more water...ahh...that's getting better.
Not stellar, but quite drinkable. No milk in it as I'm looking at ditching some dairy from my life.
Still want my La Pavoni, but this will suffice for now.
If any of you have a good brew ratio of water to beans for Chemex use then please advise.
Thanks.
Oh yeah...you guys in Oz get ripped for price.
Cheaper in NZ, and our $$ is a tad sad at the moment.
