The Chemistry in your Chemex
You only need to understand the chemistry of our chemex filter coffee. First of all, you need to drink it from The Dot to be able to tell the difference between a lousy taste and the perfect one!

Add the coffee gradually, slowly, and evenly.
(Note: remember to weight first all filter method with the grounded coffee (0) then start adding the water)
-
Bloom the grounded coffee, 50 ml softly and nicely.

Notes
Get your tools right in front of you, and make sure if you would like to have the best out of Chemex, you need to get fresh light to medium roast coffee beans of your preference.
