Why should you soak your matcha whisk? The matcha whisk (chasen) is carved out of a single piece of bamboo, and the bristles are extremely fragile, particularly when they’re dry. When you soak the matcha whisk for 1 minute in water before using it, the bristles become more pliable and less likely to break. This makes sure your whisk stays beautiful for longer, and it ensures their are no pieces of bamboo in your matcha.
