Normal teas, whether green or black, are tea leaves, which are poured over with hot water. However, the drink, which one consumes after the infusion time, is only the extract from the tea leaves – the leaves themselves remain behind and are thrown away. Unfortunately, only a fraction of the healthy contents materials of the tea is water-dissolvable, according to tea type and infusion type between 10% and 20%. So one simply throws away up to to 90% of the ingredients with the tea leaves.
When you drink Matcha, you consume the whole tea leaf (as powder dissolved in water, however not to be mistaken with instant tea!!!). This is the determining difference to other tea types. Matcha consumers enjoy the whole ground tea leaf and can thus take in a higher concentration of the antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and fibres of the green tea.

The classical Matcha preparation

Boil fresh, very soft water. If your tap water is too hard and/or is too high in mineral content, then filtered or sterilised water from bottles is a good substitute. Especially with high-quality Matcha, sterilised mineral water is suited essentially better than tap water.
Cool the boiled water to about 80°C. One can open the water cooker and wait for 10 minutes, until the water has the right temperature or simply pour the water about 4 to 5 times into another, cold vessel, as the water loses approx. 4-5°C with every

Take out the bamboo brush from its water bed and pour out the water from the bowl (or water the plants with it:-)).
Add about 1 up to 2 gram Matcha (1-2 bamboo spoons or about 1 level teaspoon) into a Matcha bowl. If the Matcha has already formed small lumps in the storage can due to air moisture, one can sieve the powder with a small kitchen sieve into the Matcha bowl. However, the lumps will also be dissolved in the next preparation steps anyway.
Add a small amount of cold or warm water to the Matcha in the bowl and stir the Matcha together with the water with the bamboo brush to a thick paste. The consistency should be like that of a roux or a very creamy sauce. The paste should be” stirred” , until there are no more lumps..
Add the remaining water to the Matcha bowl so that it is, at most, half full.
Now beat the Matcha with the bamboo brush to a froth. Here, the bamboo brush should be moved quickly in an “M” figure in the bowl; stirring the brush in a circular motion does not distribute the Matcha powder as well in the water and the foam formation is essentially better when beating in an “M” figure. The beating should be relaxed, quick and easy from the wrist. This lasts approx. 15 seconds. For the first couple of times, it will probably not work so well and the foam will not form as expected. Here also, it is true: Practice makes perfect:-) !

Matcha preparation, a change of style
Sometimes, you don‘t have the time nor the desire to feel like prepare Matcha as “extravagantly” as described above. You can also add about 1-2 gram Matcha in a normal drinking glass or a cup, add water and prepare with an electric “Matcha foamer”. By this method possible lumps do not dissolve as well as when the bamboo brush is used, however, the effect of the Matcha is not impaired. However, it is still also very important that the water must not be hotter than 80°C .
Where one can still use Matcha
Matcha can not only be stirred into water as per the classic method. Try to stir Matcha into juice, like for example pineapple juice or fresh orange juice or into milk (unskimmed milk, rice milk, soy milk etc.). However, you should not stir the Matcha here with the bamboo brush. An electric “Matcha foamer” is suited better for juice or milk, in order to distribute the Matcha powder well into the liquid.
