Chasen blonde

A Matcha whisk is an essential tool for perfect Matcha preparation. It whips the green tea powder into a creamy foam. Carefully rinse by hand after use.

Step-by-step guide

Before preparation, soak the whisk in a bowl or cup of hot water for about 1 minute to prevent the bristles from breaking.
Put 1 tsp of matcha powder into your bowl, preferably sifted through a Matcha strainer.
Add approximately 60ml of hot water (not boiling).
Whisk the matcha to create the perfect foam using M-shaped moves with your matcha whisk (chasen).
Rinse your chasen under running water and store it in a dry place.
Place the chasen on its holder after use.
Enjoy your homemade matcha.

What is a chasen (matcha whisk)?

A chasen is the traditional bamboo whisk used to prepare matcha. Carved from a single piece of bamboo, it blends the matcha powder evenly with water and whisks it into a fine, creamy foam – the basis of an authentic matcha experience. Our chasen blonde is handmade and has 80 prongs.

How many prongs should a chasen have?

The number of prongs affects the foam. Whisks with many prongs (around 80 to 100) create a particularly fine, creamy foam and are ideal for everyday use and beginners. Whisks with fewer prongs are better suited to thick matcha (koicha). Our chasen blonde has 80 prongs – a versatile all-rounder for classic, frothy matcha (usucha).

What does "blonde" mean for a chasen?

"Blonde" refers to the light, natural colour of the bamboo. The difference from darker bamboo whisks is purely visual – the colour has no effect on function or results.

How do I prepare matcha with a chasen?

Before first use, soak the prongs in warm water for about a minute so they become flexible. Sift 1 tsp (about 2 g) of matcha into a bowl, add around 60 ml of hot, not boiling water (~80 °C), and whisk with the chasen until frothy. Move loosely from the wrist in an M or W shape – not in circles. This creates the fine layer of foam.

Why isn't my matcha getting frothy?

It's usually one of these: the matcha wasn't sifted (lumps), there was too little powder or too much water, the chasen wasn't soaked beforehand, or the motion was circular instead of a quick M shape. A dry, wide bowl base and fast movements from the wrist help build an even foam.

How do I clean and care for my chasen?

Rinse the chasen with clear, warm water immediately after use – without soap or detergent, as these can damage the bamboo. Then let it air-dry, ideally prongs-up on a chasen holder so it keeps its shape. The chasen is not dishwasher-safe.

How long does a chasen last?

That depends on use and care. With proper cleaning and drying on a holder, a chasen lasts many months. Individual prongs may break over time – when noticeably many are missing or the foam no longer works, it's time for a new one.

What else do I need besides the chasen?

For classic preparation we recommend a matcha bowl (chawan), a fine matcha sieve and – for drying and shape retention – a chasen holder. Bowl, sieve, whisk and holder together form the basic kit for even, frothy matcha.

Can matcha be made without a chasen?

Yes, an electric milk frother or a small whisk can be used as alternatives. However, the especially fine, creamy foam is most reliably achieved with a traditional chasen, whose many prongs whisk the powder optimally.
