About Japanese Matcha Tea Whisk Traditional
This Traditional Bamboo Whisk (Chasen) is best used to prepare the perfect cup of Heavenly Matcha Green Tea, it is handcrafted with strong Golden Bamboo. Use it skillfully by whisking in a zigzag motion until frothy, and it will give the Matcha Tea a smooth and frothy consistency, and heighten the Matcha Tea experience. From time to time, we hear about someone who is concerned over their Chasen. Their brand new tea whisk they just bought is losing its shape after only a couple uses. Our Chasen will have a core that is twisted around, and tines that curl up at the end. However, after a few uses, the tines will straighten out, and the core will bloom. This is to be expected. Taking Care of Your Whisk Fortunately, it is relatively simple to look after a Chasen. The first thing you will need is a whisk keeper. Store your Chasen on this device. It will help the bamboo tines keep their shape, prolonging its lifespan. Secondly, clean it after each use by running it under hot clean water. You do not need to use any dishsoap to clean your Whisk. Make sure it isn't in contact with moisture for long periods of time. The bamboo can easily grow mold on it otherwise. Finally, be sure to inspect your Chasen before each use for broken tines. More for your own safety, remove any broken parts before whisking, as accidentally drinking a piece of bamboo will not be a pleasant experience. In the Japanese tea ceremony, it is recommended to use a new Chasen on each occasion. However, for casual tea drinkers like ourselves, it is much more economical to reuse the one you purchased.
