In 1956, the Chemex coffee maker was selected by the Illinois Institute of Technology as one of the best-designed items of modern times - like, up there with calculator watches and Garfield phones and Dude Wipes. In addition to being awesome looking, this combo of glass, wooden collar and strange leather lacey thing also brews a mean cup of joe. Why? Funny you should ask - it's because the patented filters are effective at trapping yucky oils, off-flavors, negative aromas and other kinds of bad juju.
