  • Thanks. These are great points. Agree with you completely about cleaning stainless. I was hesitant to introduce stainless into my brewing at all because of this. We’ve probably all smelled thermoses with a seemingly permanent coffee aroma. I did give in last year and have been brewing with my orea big boy directly into a stainless thermos. I’m really paranoid about keeping it clean whereas I just kind of use visual cues with the chemex. For now at least I use unbleached chemex filters which require heavy hot rinsing so I’m always thoroughly preheating. I think I’ll hold on to my chemex for now unless partner complains too much about cold coffee or it breaks, in which case the Miir seems like a worthy replacement.
