The wooden scoop is known for being gentler than the stainless steel scoop, making it ideal for handling delicate tea leaves. While using a scale is recommended for measuring tea, the scoop can also provide precise measurements in most cases when using a gongfu style brewing method.
I got this little tea scoop because I wanted a nice way to present my tea to guests and also have a dedicated tool for gathering and messing my tea.
This is not great for myself however as the scoop is not great for my uses. Most of the tea I have comes in cake form so I can’t just reach in and get a scoop and it’s not lvl on the bottom, so I can’t use it to hold my tea while I weigh it.
It’s very pretty and I am sure perfect for others but for myself it’s just a fancy stick.
Very pretty but I don’t get to much use of of it. It’s a lot easier to just use a titanium gaiwan I have to weigh and present tea.
