If you’re even a little bit into coffee, you will have heard of either AeroPress or Chemex. Both the AeroPress and the Chemex are easily some of the best coffee makers available today. I wouldn’t say I’m a coffee snob, but I do enjoy a good cup of java every now and then. Alright, every day. So? Some experts are claiming coffee is actually good for you now, and I’m choosing to believe them.
So with that in mind, I’ve recently taken it upon myself to drink as much coffee as humanly possible. Mostly because I’ve been testing a slew of coffee machines as part of my job as a reviews writer here at Tom’s Guide — AeroPress and Chemex included. But which one’s better? Which truly makes the best coffee? Is it the cool, synonymous-with-fancy AeroPress with its patented vacuum brewing technology, or Chemex’s hipster-coded hourglass glass-wood-leather style?
