Initiation:
Before first use, let it set in hot water for a few minutes.
Hold it under running water before every use to have it damp.
Cleaning:
Carefully rinse it under running water. If needed, use your fingers to gently remove remaining matcha. Do not let the bamboo sit in water.
Do not use dishwasher, dryer or dish soap!
Storage:
Best way to store is on a Kusenaoshi (chasen holder) to help keep its shape. If you don’t have a holder, keep it looking upwards. Storing it that way may cause it to “close up”, straighten out. In that case, dampen it in running water and gently unfold it using your fingers. Never do that while dry!
Storing it in a too warm, dry place might cause the bamboo to split.
Lifespan:
The lifespan of a chasen depends very much on how it is handled and how frequently it is used. As soon as the ends of the straws start to break off, we recommend purchasing a new one, for the ends can even break off while preparing matcha.
