This is a fundamental technic in Chinese painting. To begin, you can train with only 3 grades and, when you will masterize the practice, you do with 5. You need 3 recipient like small plates (or 5 for 5 grades). In the first one, you put pure ink, as dark as possible. You dip inside your maobi and you “clean” it in some pure water, in the second plate. You will obtain the second grade (dark grey). You do the same in the third plate : with your maobi full of dark grey, you dilute in pure water in order to obtain a light grey. If you want 5 grades, it is the same but with 4 successive dilutions of the ink.
