Chasen - Bamboo Matcha Whisk 48 g - MATCHA MAGIC

INGREDIENTS
bamboo

DESCRIPTION
The traditional whisk used to froth matcha tea during the Japanese tea ceremony.
The broom, also known as the brush, is made by hand from a single piece of bamboo. The precise cuts create a flexible mustache that is slightly curved at the bottom and gathered at the top and finished with a special wooden handle.
Chasen is best used in the bowl for preparing and drinking matcha. The vertical walls of the bowl and the wide bottom allow you to easily and conveniently "beat" the matcha in water and quickly get a layer of foam on the surface. It should be noted that the temperature of the water in which matcha is prepared should not exceed 80 °C.

Tips for Whipping Matcha: It's best to start beating matcha slowly, gently scrubbing the chasenu at the bottom of the cup allows you to mix everything well with water. Then we move the chase higher, closer to the surface and begin more vigorous movements resembling the letter W or M for about 10-20 seconds.
It's worth remembering to only work with your wrist while mixing, not the whole hand, which tires more easily. A thin blanket of foam should quickly form on the surface. A perfect foaming of the tea is possible thanks to the many flexible bamboo whiskers. The more mustache in the chasnie, the easier it is to get the so-called "jasper mousse", or the perfect layer of foam.
For the best effect, the brush should be soaked in hot water before use and rinsed after use. Chasen shrinks as it dries, becomes brittle and prone to damage, so it's worth keeping on a special naoshi stand.

DANGER
Do not clean in the dishwasher!

RECOMMENDED STORAGE
Storing Chasen on a special stand will help it last longer and stay in the right shape. However, do not seal the chasene in plastic wrap or any other sealed container as this may result in the accidental growth of mold on the bamboo handle.
