The Guides

Six things worth getting right.

General starting points below — for ratios and photos dialed to your specific tiers and equipment, just email us.

01

Dosing & Ratios

A general starting point: 2g matcha to roughly 2oz water for a traditional usucha; scale up for milk drinks. Your ideal dose depends on the tier and your equipment.

Want the full dosing chart per tier? Email us.

02

Whisking Technique

Bamboo whisk in a "W" motion for ceremonial prep; a milk frother or blender bottle works fine for high-volume lattes. Water just off the boil, never boiling.

03

Milk & Sweeteners

Matcha holds up in dairy and most non-dairy alternatives. Whisk the matcha into a small amount of hot water first, then combine — adding powder straight to cold milk is the most common cause of clumping.

04

Iced & Cold Brew

Whisk at double strength against a small amount of hot water, then pour over ice — diluting an already-mixed hot matcha tends to flatten the flavor.

05

Storage & Shelf Life

Keep it sealed, cold, and out of direct light — matcha's color and flavor fade faster than most people expect once a bag is opened.

Troubleshooting

Bitterness, clumping, dull color — most issues trace back to water temperature, dose, or how long a bag's been open. See common fixes below.

Common Issues

Quick fixes before you message us.

Matcha tastes bitter+
Usually water that's too hot. Let it cool just off the boil (roughly 175°F) before whisking — boiling water pulls out bitterness fast, especially in ceremonial tiers.
It clumps in milk+
Whisk the matcha into a small amount of hot water first to form a smooth paste, then combine with milk. Adding powder directly to cold liquid is the most common cause.
Color looks dull or brown
Likely age or storage — matcha oxidizes once opened, faster if it's warm or exposed to light. Check how long the bag's been open, and keep unused stock sealed and cold.
Foam won't form+
Needs enough agitation, not just stirring — a bamboo whisk, milk frother, or blender bottle all work. Very low tiers of matcha-to-liquid ratio can also make foam harder to hold.
Inconsistent color or flavor batch to batch+
Tell us the lot — every order traces back to a specific harvest and milling batch, so we can check what changed and whether it's within normal seasonal variation.
