How to prepare matcha?

The preparation of matcha requires a traditional bowl and a matcha whisk. If you want to respect the tradition, the use of the chashaku, a traditional measuring spoon, is necessary. You have to whisk the matcha powder vigorously in hot water to obtain a foam. However, there are several schools. Some ban the foam.

How much matcha to use?

Use about 1g of matcha powder for 80ml of water, but this is a guideline. Depending on your taste, you can increase the dosage or decrease the amount of liquid for a more intense aroma.

What is the ideal infusion temperature for matcha?

For an ideal preparation, use water between 70 and 80 °C. To obtain a nice foam, you can start by whipping the matcha powder in a little cold water.

When to drink matcha?
