Prongs

120 fine prongs give the smoothest, finest foam and are the classic choice for thin (usucha) matcha and lattes.

Material

Solid bamboo. No plastic, no glue. Approx. 11 cm tall.

How to use

Soften the prongs in warm water for 30 seconds before the first use. Sift 1-2 g of matcha into the bowl, add about 70 ml of water at 80°C, and whisk briskly in a W shape with your wrist until a fine foam covers the surface.

Care

Rinse in warm water only, no soap. Shake off and let it air-dry on a whisk holder so the prongs keep their shape. Never leave a bamboo whisk soaking or in a dishwasher.

When to replace

With daily use a bamboo whisk lasts about 2-3 months; at 2-3 times a week, around 6 months. When prongs start to split or the foam gets coarse, it is time for a fresh one. See whisks.
