Preparation & Care
Preparation & Care
Chawan Matcha Bowl
Wash gently with warm water and mild dish soap. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh detergents. Do not place it in the dishwasher or microwave. This will help prevent damage to the glaze or cracking. Allow the matcha bowl to air dry completely before storing.
Bamboo Chasen Whisk
Rinse with warm water immediately after use to remove any matcha residue. Avoid soap or soaking the whisk, as it can damage the chasen bamboo matcha whisk. Shake off excess water and allow the whisk prongs to air dry in the whisk holder to maintain its shape. Store in a dry place to prevent mold or warping and help keep them in perfect condition. Inspect the whisk regularly for the best results and replace it when the prongs become brittle or break.
Ceramic Whisk or Chasen Holder
Wipe clean with a damp cloth or rinse with mild soap and warm water. Ensure it is completely dry before placing the whisk on it.
Bamboo Matcha Scoop
To maintain the longevity of your bamboo matcha scoop (Chashaku), rinse it gently with warm water after each use, avoiding prolonged soaking as it may cause warping. Pat it dry with a clean cloth and allow it to air dry completely before storing it to prevent moisture buildup.
Matcha Sifter
To keep your matcha sifter in top condition, rinse the stainless steel mesh with warm water after each use to remove any matcha residue. Avoid soaking the sifter, especially the wooden handle, as excessive moisture can weaken the wood over time. Use a soft brush or dry cloth to gently clean any remaining powder. Allow the sifter to air dry completely before storing it in a cool, dry place.
Cotton Tea Cloth
To maintain the quality of your cotton tea cloth, hand wash it gently with mild soap and warm water after each use. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach, as they can weaken the fabric over time.
