I can appreciate doing this the traditional way to it's culture of inheritance, that being said I stir my matcha without sifting, and just stirr with a spoon, and it's not chunky.

[@zensuperfood]

It's nice to see someone using good whisking technique. Lots of videos out there show people slowly stirring the matcha, which never really breaks up the chunks.

[@Purematchateas]

Glad you enjoyed it!

great tutorial! My first time making Matcha tea, and it was a great experience thanks to this! I'm glad I bought a set of the other tools + cup with the tea, I didn't expect that I had to use all of them!

[@Purematchateas]

Thanks for the feedback @vinced6554. We're thrilled to hear that this video helped guide you through the process!

[@taylora8845]

As someone trying to "level up" to matcha from my usual standard green tea, this is a great video! I was a little frustrated with my first attempt, (which is the OPPOSITE of how matcha is supposed to make you feel lol.) So it led me to your helpful video! Thanks! (I wanted to ask though, you mentioned as a tip to not let the whisk touch the cup while stirring. May I ask the reason for this? (I am just not able to avoid contact unfortunately.)

[@xcrystalpawsx]

I think it's because of the whisk! I've heard in another video that the whisk is made out of one full piece of bamboo, so it's quite fragile. They recommended soaking the whisk in water before using it to prepare the matcha!

[@mohamedalmahdi8568]

Thank you

[@andersjan25]

Waiting for my bamboo whisker to arrive before making this matcha recipe. Got my ceremonial matcha already.

[@rr7firefly]

Looks like you're out of luck if you don't have a bamboo whisk.

[@e.b.4379]

One can also use a small milk frother machine... Works brilliantly!

[@Sbannmarie]

Basically

[@3dstaco]

It's called just buy one

[@joannesmith1175]

Just use a spoon or a fork

[@apollocreed1000]

I just use a spoon and stir quickly

[@Senyorita2030]

Is it ok to do whisking with an electric metal frother from Ikea?

[@paulling3246]

My hack when u dont have the right tools is use a protein powder shaker bottle. Just be careful as the lid will pop off due to 80 degrees water...I crack my lid open a bit 😉

[@jimmycorr7927]

Probably shouldnt put 80 degree water in one of those

[@aelistarborn]

I think the sif could be avoided if you just pour a very small amount of water first and make a paste? And I remember hearing that you should warm the bowl with some hot water first as well? I'm not trying to be a wisecracker. Just expected to get some more details :)

[@paulphelps7809]

It's important to know that ALL matcha products are good from a health viewpoint. The ratings 'better' or 'best' are about artistic values --taste, fragrance, appearance.

[@katherinepoltoratzky6068]

Not really. There's gunk in some just like any natural product.

[@tinyjungle_]

Depending where it's grown there could be contamination

[@TheAeasy19]

I heard milk blocks all benefits

[@differentone_p]

can't make the foam with fork🥺

[@williammcnichols9538]

what is benefit if any of whisking vs not whisking? thank you

[@loozat3987]

Matcha is green tea in powder form, therefore, you can not steep it like any other tea. ... Whisking matcha helps the powder suspend in water. If you're not whisking matcha, then you have to find a different way to suspend the powder and make sure the hot tea isn't chalky and clumpy.😊

[@odalanizi]

I don't understand. Should I whisk it?

[@naominellissa9148]

Hi thanks for sharing your tips But how hot was your water ?

[@Purematchateas]

We find that 70 - 80 degrees celsius is the optimal water temperature for Matcha. Never use boiling water.

[@naominellissa9148]

@@Purematchateas ok thank you

[@michaelroberts7374]

I like it at 60. ....

How hot should the water you add to “top up” after whisking?

​@zyklan2197 it does matter you half wit idiot. Its one of most important steps.

[@coalblest3018]

Frother would work perfect

[@Purematchateas]

It sure does! When using a battery operated frother be sure to use a tall glass...otherwise it could get messy. Matcha bowls are too shallow for a frother.

[@spooks4360]

@@Purematchateas thank you

[@salma3389]

My match doesn't foam like that

[@nickhayley]

You're using substandard matcha then. Low grade matcha such as the almost brown looking culinary grade matcha wont foam no matter how hard you whisk it. It is gross 😝. Only use that if you're going to throw it into a smoothie or with many other ingredients to mask it. Very high quality matcha foams into tiny delicate bubbles that remain for many many minutes even after you've slurped your bowl of all the liquid. My go-to matcha is the highest grade (Yukiro) matcha from Zen Wonders Matcha in Australia. Purematcha also have some high quality matcha. I'd suggest buying some small sample sizes first to decide if you like that flavour before dropping $140 on 100g like I do. Every cup is like pure magic.

[@meowmeowfish3574]

U need whisk

[@mmslimeshop9340]

You buy match is such small amounts, I'm spending about $700 a month on about the highest grade match you can get@@nickhayley

[@lycoris8425]

Me: inserts steam wand into water+matcha powder If it works, it works(Ik it ain’t the best method, but it’s better than using a spoon

How do I clean my bamboo whisk

[@Shibatsukiyomi3]

Put in in warm water ( not boiling) and whisk it , u can repeat until it loooks clean

[@shahdadi999]

I think my matcha is fake... its dark green and i did everything and nkthing worked

[@davidsddd8982]

Probably culinary matcha. The matcha you're looking for is ceremonial matcha.

[@user-zl6uz3ks6w]

Why would i want to put medicinal matcha thru a metal strainer?

[@NSixtyFour]

Most modern plumbing involves metal so unless you are getting your water from a natural spring...

[@user-zl6uz3ks6w]

My water is tripled filtered and yes from a spring. The metal disrupts the medicinal value of the matcha and does not allow the constituents to be activated in order to benefit from its healing properties.@@NSixtyFour

[@tbtnr9851]

Why isn’t my tea frothy even if i use a bamboo stick?

[@Purematchateas]

A high-grade matcha will usually form froth effortlessly. The finer the powder, the easier it will froth. If your matcha is stone-milled, then the matcha particles will be ultra-fine and result in a creamier finish. Check the best before date of the matcha tea. Freshly milled matcha will also produce a good result. Use a chawan (Matcha tea bowl) the wide base will make whisking matcha much easier than whisking in a coffee mug. It allows more room for you to whisk the matcha and aerate the tea to produce the froth. Always whisk in and 'W' motion. Hopefully, some of these tips will help you achieve that matcha crema!

[@tbtnr9851]

@@Purematchateas maybe it is because i’m whisking it in a coffee mug, thanks!

[@sonarharin3906]

It could also be the water… Samurai Matcha (YT channel) mentioned when he was traveling in Europe the harder water made it less frothy. So don’t worry too much!

[@jussisyrenius4679]

The chunks go in the belly. So much work for something that goes in the belly.

The ad for the next video came up right over the instructions. Is that all of the volume you ingest? I want a whole damn cup of green tea! That’s like 3 tablespoons of liquid. Annoyed at the ad placement

Add water to taste says the video.

[@mikerotch3158]

Really only 60ml of water? That's just one sip...

[@Purematchateas]

Yea - only 60ml - 80ml to start with so that whisking the tea won't spill everywhere. Once the matcha tea becomes foamy, you can add water to your desired taste.

[@markylon]

Did you watch the video ??? It CLEARLY says you add 60ml of water to whisk then you add MORE water to your liking. PAY ATTENTION NEXT TIME. DID YOU FAIL SCHOOL ALSO?

Yeah, I've found that matcha isn't for everyone. Most of the people I know (I'm American for reference so Matcha isn't commonly drunk here) don't like it but I enjoy it quite a bit.

[@Cherubi-chan]

For me it's a matter of getting used to it. Tasted bad at first but being persistent in trying has helped.

[@UnderPresser]

So we're supposed to drink it with all the tea powder still in it? Yyyyeach. Plus, its continuing to brew and get bitter even after its supposedly prepared. How about we put the nonsensically traditional tea ceremony thing aside and try running the tea through a coffee filter after brewing is concluded? And what do the Japanese have against cups with handles? Just.....why? Tea=good. Burning your hands=bad.

[@rotciv1492]

You're not drinking it through a thin glass, and that water is far from boiling, so you can grab it just fine. Also, matcha is always consumed by dissolving the powder, that's where its thick bubbly texture comes from. If not, it is not matcha. And the ceremonial thing is a grade to determine the grade of the tea, nothing to do with dissolving the powder or not.
