History:
The Chemex® coffeemaker was invented by chemist Peter J. Schlumbohm, Ph.D., in 1941. Being a doctor of Chemistry, he was very familiar with laboratory equiptment and the methods of filtration and extraction. He applied this knowledge when designing the Chemex coffeemaker by modifying the laboratory funnel, adding an "air channel" and a pouring spout.
In 1956, the Chemex coffee maker was selected by the Illinois Institute of Technology as one of the best-designed items of modern times, the only coffee brewer chosen for the award. The Chemex is in the permanent collections of museums such as the MOMA-Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Smithsonian, the Philadelphia Museum and the Corning Museum located in Corning, NY. When it comes to exceptionally tasting coffee made from a simple but elegant process, the Chemex has no rival.
