    I’ve learned quite a bit from your video here and I love that a seemingly small object is important enough to gain a personal name and story. I’ve recently purchased a smoked bamboo chashaku for my tea ceremony practice. I love its colour and delicate nature, and now I will be on the lookout for a name that it wants. Thank you for your work on this channel! Peace

    Question: I have congenitally bad knees and have had 6 surgeries on the left one alone including one in the last 6 months. I cannot use a Stairmaster or do squats. Is Seiza a possibility for me even with practice? I feel like my orthopaedist will fire me if I ask him. What do the Japanese do when they have very bad knees? Is there an alternative manner of formal sitting for ritual ceremonies when one of the participants has knees like mine? And if so, what is it? I've searched and searched and can find nothing, but modern Japan has a 33% rate of knee problems in citizens over 60, so they can't ALL be sitting Seiza.

    I have been a member of The Tea Crane's Tea Club for the past year. Independent of the teas, I like the fact that shipments are quarterly so I don't feel I am getting buried by teas like I think I would feel with monthly shipments. Sosen Sensei's selections are always intriguing. Lots of Japanese greens, some oolongs and an occasional black with a surprise thrown in every once in a while. I've been really enjoying the teas he has selected. One question that has always lingered in my mind was why he kept recommending water just off the boil, particularly for Japanese green teas (Sencha, etc) when "common practice" says to keep the water at 80C or below for Senchas. While he is brewing an oolong in this video, his explanation of why he uses boiling water for almost all his teas clarifies the science behind the "off the boil" recommendation. I now understand. Thank you Sosen Sensei.

    You mentioned soaking the whisk tines to make them springier and less brittle @3:04. How long, and is this also necessary if you don't use the whisk for prolonged periods? Thank You!

  • @theteacrane
    @theteacrane4 ай бұрын

    Soak the tines before use just for a few minutes. Ideal is if you can soak them briefly in warm water before whisking a bowl of matcha. It will extend the lifespan of your whisk and make better foam. If you haven’t used it for a long time, then I definitely recommend soaking the whisk before use, both to add moisture and flexibility to the tines as the whisk will have dried out, and to purify it from any dust it may have caught.

    I've been enjoying your videos and appreciate the effort you put into them! I watched all your videos in just one day 😄. I would be thrilled if you could create videos about Chagama in the future. Topics could include how to use it from start to finish, proper maintenance and cleaning, important considerations, and even comparisons with electric alternatives. I'm particularly interested in whether Chagama works on induction stovetops for home use. As a fan, I'd love to learn more about the background and usage of Chagama iron pots from a professional like yourself. Looking forward to your future content!" Warm regards from Switzerland, Alessandro

    Thank you! Traditional chagama do not work on induction plates. Some might, but contemporary ones are being created to better fit that purpose. Not that getting one should be a priority though. Thank you for the idea! I will keep it in mind.

    @@theteacrane i’m sure I’m going to: so far tea is so much better than coffee. here I am 42 years old and I’m just making the switch about six months ago or so. Before I learned how to steep Gyokuro in a kyusu I’ve been using a steel mesh ball. It has a very strong flavour and it taste good but I would like to try the real way so I’m eager. So thanks again Crane! I will be using your video as a how to when it comes in the mail, the next day or two.

    Thanks for the explanation on the water temp. I understand the bitterness not being released and catechins, but I think my goal is to get as many catechins out of my tea in as possible in order to obtain the health benefits provided by the catechins (polyphenols). I suppose I will just brew mine unconventionally (gasp!).

    In that case I recommend to select a catechin rich green tea such as sencha instead of an amino acid rich gyokuro.
