Its separate receiving dish can be used both as a vessel to hold sifted matcha and as a stand for the strainer. Made of high-quality stainless steel, this sifter was crafted in Tsubame City, an area known for its abundance of mineral resources and production of tableware and metal houseware. Production Method: The net is spot-welded with the main body and the ring; then the polished finish is cleaned and plated.Specifications: Our sifter is 40 mesh, which means it has 40 openings per linear inch. This mesh size is ideal for producing a smooth, clump-free matcha with consistent texture while still allowing the powder to pass through easily.
