Estimated at about 34 mg of caffeine and 25 mg of L-theanine per gram of matcha. Cultivar, grade and harvest all move the real figure, so treat these as a guide, not a measurement. Not medical advice.
Sift 1g of matcha into a small bowl or shot glass.
Add 30ml of water at 72 degrees Celsius.
Whisk briskly for 15 seconds until smooth.
Pour into a small cup and sip in two or three quick drinks.
Half a gram less means half the caffeine. Useful before short workouts or in the late afternoon.Almanac note
Made it?
The journal keeps this bowl (grams, water, temperature, and how it actually tasted) on this device, so the next one starts from what worked. It builds a 13-week heatmap as you go, and it is free for up to 1,000 bowls on this device. Premium adds the tin cellar, so each bowl is costed against the tin you actually poured it from.
