Board Care Guide

Q: How do I keep my board looking fresh and performing like it should?

Condition it. Monthly. No exceptions.
Use our board conditioner (or any food-safe mineral oil and beeswax blend).
Apply generously, let it soak overnight, then wipe away the excess.
It’s skincare for wood — skip it, and things get ugly.

Q: Can I put it in the dishwasher?

Absolutely not. That’s the fastest way to destroy it.
Your board is handcrafted hardwood, not plastic.
Hand wash only with warm water and mild soap.
Towel dry immediately. Never let it soak.

Q: Can I use bleach or harsh cleaners?

No. Just soap and water.
To sanitize, use white vinegar or lemon with coarse salt.
Think of your board like cast iron — tough, but not indestructible.

Q: My board looks dry. What now?

Reapply conditioner — monthly is ideal, more often if it’s working overtime.
If it’s really parched, go heavy on the conditioner and let it rest for 24 hours.

Q: Is it normal to see knife marks?

Yes. It’s a cutting board, not a museum piece. Knife marks are character.
With proper care, the surface will self-heal over time thanks to the grain and conditioner.

Q: Can I cut raw meat on it?

Yes — just clean it immediately afterward.
Wash with soap and warm water, dry thoroughly, and recondition if needed.
Pro tip: dedicate one side for meat and the other for produce.

Storage Tips

• Keep it flat and dry.

• Don’t let it soak.

• Don’t lean it against a hot stove or sink.

• Always let it dry completely before storing.

Better yet — keep it on the counter. These boards are designed to be seen.
