AVANTCHA Matcha Whisk

A 100-prong whisk is designed to aerate the matcha more efficiently than versions with fewer prongs. This higher density helps you achieve a finer, more consistent froth and a creamier texture in less time.

Rinse the whisk under warm water immediately after use, ensuring all matcha residue is removed. Allow it to air dry completely in an upright position or on a dedicated whisk stand to maintain the shape of the prongs and prevent mold.

To create the best foam, use a quick, zigzag motion—often described as writing the letter 'W'—rather than a circular stirring motion. Keep your wrist loose and flick the whisk rapidly just beneath the surface of the tea.

Yes, it is normal for the inner prongs to straighten out or the outer prongs to lose their curve after repeated use. This is a natural characteristic of hand-carved bamboo, and the whisk should be replaced once the prongs become brittle or damaged.

It is recommended to soak the tips of the prongs in warm water for a few minutes before your first use. This softens the bamboo, making the prongs more flexible and less likely to snap during your initial whisking sessions.
