The quality of the powder, the water temperature, and the ratio all determine the flavor. <a href=\"https:\/\/severin.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SEVERIN<\/a> is introducing a matcha-green version of the SPUMA Lite for heating and frothing milk.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Matcha is made from <a href=\"https:\/\/koffietcacao.com\/en\/blog\/from-leaf-to-tencha-processing-before-grinding\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"54114\">tencha<\/a>: tea leaves that are shaded before harvest and ground into a fine powder after processing. Unlike with brewed tea, you drink the ground leaves along with the liquid. As a result, the cultivation, processing, and preparation directly influence the flavor you experience. The <a href=\"https:\/\/koffietcacao.com\/en\/blog\/matcha-file-from-tea-leaf-to-bowl\/\">KTC matcha report<\/a> covers these steps in detail.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even when making a latte, the preparation of the tea deserves attention. Sift the powder beforehand to break up any clumps, then whisk it with water until smooth. For most matcha, 70 to 80 \u00b0C is a good starting point. Water that\u2019s too hot can intensify bitterness and leave an unpleasant aftertaste. Add the milk only after that.
