- Carefully cut open the silver bag to avoid spilling the matcha powder.
- Transfer the powder into the Johnny Matcha bag.
3. 💧 Soften Chasen (if using)
- Soak the bristles with hot water for roughly 1 minute to ensure the bamboo is soft enough before whisking your matcha.
4. 🥄 Measure Matcha
- Use 1 level teaspoon or two almond-sized chashaku scoops (traditional bamboo scooper).
- Place the matcha into your chawan (matcha bowl) or cup.
5. 🌪️ Whisk or Shake Matcha
- For a Chasen (matcha whisk): Pour 2 oz of water over the matcha powder (70-80°C or 160-175°F). Whisk in a "W" motion until the matcha is smooth and frothy.
- For an electric whisk or shaker: Add 2-4 oz of water first, then the matcha. Blend or shake until no visible clumps can be seen and the matcha is frothy.
6. 🥛 Customize Your Matcha
