Bamboo Whisk | Chasen

Crafted from premium 100% bamboo, our chasen (bamboo whisk) features 100 prongs that are specifically designed for the perfect suspension and separation of matcha powder. This traditional tool is favored by matcha enthusiasts, producing a smooth, creamy texture with a frothy layer top.

Care Instructions

1. Prepare the Whisk: Prepare the new whisk for first use by soaking it in warm water for a few seconds to remove debris. Rinse it off and allow it to dry before using.
2. Proper Technique: Hold the whisk vertically while whisking in a zigzag formation to combine the matcha with water until no clumps are visible. Avoid pushing down into the bowl to protect the integrity of your prongs. 
3. Clean your Whisk: To maintain proper hygiene and prevent mold growth, rinse the whisk with warm water after each use and ensure it is completely dry before storing.
4. Storing your Whisk: Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the bamboo from drying out or becoming brittle. If possible, store your whisk on a chasen holder to help maintain its shape and prevent the prongs from becoming misshapen.
