Matcha Care & Help

Common Questions

1. My whisk is shedding tiny bamboo pieces. Is it defective?

This is completely normal for new bamboo whisks. Discard your first cup of matcha, then enjoy—the shedding will stop after a few uses.

Normal on first use

2. How do I prevent my whisk from breaking or getting moldy?

Always soak whisk in warm water 1-2 minutes before use. After whisking, rinse and air-dry upside-down on the stand in open air.

3. My bowl color looks different from the photo. Is this wrong?

Each bowl is hand-glazed in small batches, so subtle color variations are expected. Your bowl is authentically one-of-a-kind.

Hand-glazed = unique

4. How long should my bamboo whisk last?

With proper care (pre-soaking and stand-drying), your whisk should last 3-4 months with daily use, longer with occasional use.
