Chemex filter paper for cleaner pour over
Chemex filter paper half moon 100-pack is the choice for those who want a clearer, cleaner, and more controlled brew at home. These original filters are developed for pour over filter paper and provide even extraction thanks to their conical shape and higher paper density. We especially like them for 3-cup Chemex, where the right coffee filter makes a big difference in the cup’s balance and texture. One thing to keep in mind: they are mainly suited for smaller Chemex models, so for larger brewers, the square filters fit better.
Main features

Brewing tips
We recommend a coarser grind for Chemex if you want to bring out the clean, open character the brewing method is known for. Feel free to rinse the filter with hot water before brewing to warm up the brewer and reduce any paper taste. Place the side with multiple layers toward the spout for proper support and stability during brewing.
Instructions for folding crescent filters
Fold the filter according to the Chemex method so it forms a stable cone before placing it in the brewer. For Chemex brewers other than the 3-cup models, we recommend the square filters instead.
