Pyrex French Press Questions
Which is the best for everyday coffee-making: Chemex or Hario?
I’m looking at the Hario V60 and the Chemex (preferrably an older, more durable Pyrex one).
Basically I want an everyday-use coffee-making device. I’m not inclined to fancy this up with timers and temperature gauges, but can follow basic brewing premises. I really just want a pretty decent cup of coffee in the morning. Minus the added plastic chemicals from an electric drip. I’d prefer also, something less gritty and dense than what one gets from a French press.
Opinions, anyone? Experience with manual brewing mechanisms? Are there pros and cons to these two devices — besides pricey Chemex filters? I honestly can’t decide and hate to spring for the expensive Chemex and end up disappointed…
I would chose the hairo v60 because of the awesome features that come with this device!!!!!
Coffee Machines – History of Coffee Makers
The modern Coffeemaker was invented in 1800 in France. The popularity of this device can be understood by the fact that the sale of coffeemaker today is more then the combined number of other kitchen appliances. The standardized coffee-makers started to appear in the start of 20th century. Similarly the hourglass inspired design dominated the coffee-maker design in America during the 1920s. In later years Salix, Mrs. Sutton, Pyrex, CHEMEX, Schlumbohm, Bauhaus, and Alfonso were the different devices that became hugely popular as well.
Coffee is the largest cash crop for many countries in Africa, and has contributed in development of many ancillary industries as well. Coffeemaker is one such product that has been popular in various shapes even in the 18h century Europe Before the invention of coffeemaker tasting the perfectly brewed coffee was luxury of select few. Incidentally the process of making coffee has also undergone many changes as well. Today proper roasting, heating, grinding and storing the coffee is trillion dollar industry.
The industrial age was the first time when the vast number of coffee-makers were produced and sold. This device combined the traditional skills of brewing the coffee for everyone. The first coffeemakers were Vacuumed Brewers, after this the Percolators, Electric Drip, Pour over, and French Press designs became standard for making of this device.
The drip brewing system was perfected by Biggin, the French company in the last decade of 18th century. The Vacuum Brewers were commercially by Baum Company in 1915. This was based upon the principle of vacuum introduced by Napier in 1840. Interestingly the slightly burnt darker brew that is popular today was not considered as correctly made coffee till early 19th century.
The first coffee-making devices were more then five times the size of today’s sleek designs. Their shape was basically two vessels combined together with the strainer placed between them. This early coffeemaker can be seen still in Smithsonian Museum as well. Placed in the home section today, this was sold as the Gerhard Sintax Coffee Machine in 1925.
The Siphon design was also popular during the 1920s too. This was counter weight device with heating chambers with snuffer section. The device used to contain the chamber for flame for providing the heat too. This can be seen as the first automatic coffee making device. The best seller coffee making device during the depression years was made by Inez Pierce. His company was Coffee Machines based in Chicago, and he perfected the vacuum brewing technique with top burner attachment that we see in today’s design.
