Share
We've prepared a simple guide for all busy business people out there. First, a key element of preparing the perfect matcha is your matcha whisk or chasen. Here is how to take care of it, ensuring it lasts through your busy days and continues to bring you the frothy matcha experience.
Why your matcha whisk matters
The right tools can make a big difference. One important tool is the matcha whisk or chasen, which helps create that smooth, frothy texture we all love. Using a proper whisk not only improves the flavor and appearance of your matcha but also elevates the overall experience.
1.Rinse after use
After whisking up your delicious cup of NOT GREEN matcha, don’t just toss your chasen aside! Rinse it gently with warm water immediately after use, avoid using soap as it can leave residues that alter the flavor of your matcha.
2. Dry it properly
Once rinsed, it is important to dry your whisk correctly. Shake off any excess water and gently reshape the bristles with your fingers. Lay it flat on a towel or place it in a whisk holder if you have one. Avoid leaving it upright, as this can bend or damage the bristles over time.
3. Store with care
Properly storing your chasen helps it last longer. Keep it in a cool, dry spot away from sunlight. You can use a whisk holder to maintain its shape or store it in a small container to protect it from dust. Avoid placing heavy items on top of it, as this can damage the delicate bamboo.
4. Be gentle
Your chasen is a delicate instrument, so treat it with care. Avoid whisking too hard or using it in very hot water, as this can affect the bamboo. Use light, circular motions to create a froth. This helps your whisk last longer and gives your matcha a smooth texture.
5. Know when to replace
Even with proper care, your matcha whisk will wear out over time. Check for damaged bristles or cracks in the bamboo. A good quality chasen can last from several months to a few years. When it is time to replace it, don’t hesitate to invest in a new one, your matcha deserves it!
Taking care of your matcha whisk is more than just maintenance, it is about preserving a tool that supports your daily hustle. By keeping your whisk in top condition, you are ensuring that every cup of NOT GREEN organic premium matcha is perfectly blended, giving you the energy to power through your day.
Happy whisking and keep hustling!
