FAQs

What do I need to make matcha at home?

Matcha powder, a chawan (bowl), a chasen (bamboo whisk), and hot (not boiling) water. A small sifter helps remove lumps. No need for expensive kit to start.

What temperature should water be for green tea?

Around 80°C for most green teas; boiling water can make it bitter. Matcha is typically 80–85°C. A variable-temperature kettle is useful for different teas.

Where can I buy matcha and tea accessories in the UK?

Amazon UK, specialist tea shops, and brands like Teapigs and Bird & Blend. Look for ceremonial-grade matcha if you want quality for drinking straight.
