They're what work air into the matcha as you whisk, creating a dense, even layer of foam. The more prongs, the finer the foam — and with 80 prongs, this chasen ranks among the finely crafted models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy prong count matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA chasen with many prongs distributes the powder more evenly and creates a creamier foam than a whisk with fewer, coarser prongs. The purple bamboo is handcrafted, and every piece is slightly different. You guide the whisk in brisk W or M motions until fine bubbles form on the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"ccc-compare-table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUrban Tokyo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProngs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e80, purple bamboo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBamboo, handcrafted\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter 6.4 cm × height 10.2 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitability\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUsucha and koicha\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who values a dense, fine foam and prefers a traditional bamboo tool to get there.
