Method

  1. Sift 2g of matcha into a bowl.

  2. Add 30ml of water at 75 degrees Celsius.

  3. Whisk for 15 seconds until smooth and frothy.

  4. Fill a glass with ice and pour in the matcha.

  5. Top with 120ml of cold water and stir.

Whisk in a small amount of warm water first so the powder dissolves cleanly.Almanac note

Made it?

Keep the ratio that worked

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 and unlimited. Premium adds the tin cellar, so each bowl is costed against the tin you actually poured it from.
