My condolences. I will refrain from pointing out that's why I always permit myself a backup or two. (or seven)

Ya never know.

Don't feel bad, I broke like three Chemexes so far.
I passed on my Chemex to yakster, but I fear it didn't last too long. Hard to break the Technivorm  ;)

If you try—for example dropping a full half-gallon canning jar on a cement slab—you can break 'em.

It's true;  dropping one into the sink (as I did the Chemex) might even work, but the thing is:  there are always more Mason jars to be had .....for free....breakage doesn't hurt so much....

Also I love it that you (I think it was you) turned me on to those wonderful plastic lids that fit the Masons.  So much easier for non-pressurized uses than the old two-part metal lids....and also cheap....

Three teenagers in the house and there are grownups doing kitchen chores?!? Maybe you have them chopping wood and mucking out the barn instead?  ;D
