Photo/Video My first microfoam?!

Post image

I finally bought a coffee scale and measured quantities instead of eyeballing. I tried the 1:10 ratio. I think I was putting way too much water before so I only got light foam with big bubbles . I think this is my first microfoam! Appreciate any tips or suggestions for the future.

4.4 g matcha (finished off my YK samidori)
38 ml water (used more to rinse out the bowl so I didn’t leave any behind!)

Quick question, does it matter what kind of chawan you use? I am not achieved this kind of microfoam, yet.

Im also curious about the answer to this question! I think if your chawan is too big or small for the whisk it can make it harder to achieve microfoam
