Care & Cleaning

Cleaning

1. Do not use conventional dish detergent!

Dish detergent dissolves grease and can damage the oiled surface of the board.

Use only the surface cleaner tested and certified by us.

 

Important note:

If a cleaning agent other than the recommended product is used, the statutory warranty expires.

 

2. Cleaning:

Rinse both sides first with cold water, then with hot water.

(prevents protein coagulation and warping).

Lightly mist both sides with the recommended surface cleaner,

Let soak for about 1 minute, then clean with a clean, lint-free wiping cloth or the included fleece.

 

Note:

The fleece lightly sands the surface. This keeps it smooth and easier to clean.

 

Care

Oil the cutting board as needed (for graying, water absorption, or small cracks)

 

1. Cleaning & drying

Clean the cutting board as described.

Let dry completely – store dust-free, grease-free, and dry.

 

2. Oil application as needed

Shake care oil vigorously.

Apply care oil evenly on both sides.

Work in with a fine stainless steel sponge or the included fleece in circular motions.

 

3. Let soak in

Let rest for at least 15 minutes.

Best to let dry standing on the narrow side.

 

4. Remove excess

Remove excess with a clean cotton cloth.

Dry polish for optimal sealing.

Drying time & conditions

8 hours at approx. 20 °C room temperature.

Relative humidity: 40–60 %

(The drier the air, the better the result.)

 

Important:

Do not use the cutting board while drying.

The care oil may emit a slight inherent odor during this time.

Care oil – application & storage

Shelf life: 2 years in the sealed original container.

Yield: approx. 100 applications per 250 ml container.

Processing temperature: not below 16 °C.

After transport: let rest at room temperature for at least 24 hours.

Stain removal

Please wear disposable gloves!

 

1. Direct application

Apply stain remover undiluted. Let it soak in.

 

2. Enhanced effect

Soak a kitchen towel with stain remover. Place directly on the stain – shortens the exposure time and increases the cleaning effect.

 

3. Observe the mode of action

The stain remover dissolves the protective oil layer. Be sure to re-oil afterwards.

 

If necessary, repeat the process until the stain is removed.

"For us, every board is more than just a product. It is a piece of craftsmanship meant to bring joy – in your kitchen, day after day." - Felix Picherer (Founder)
Quality you can feel

Traditional craftsmanship meets modern standards.

Our cutting boards are crafted with care in a specialized workshop—far from industrial mass production and fully in line with our values: durability, functionality, and genuine wood craftsmanship.

Gentle on knives – for long-lasting sharpness

Thanks to the vertical wood fibers of the end-grain surface, the board gives slightly with each cut – the blade sinks between the fibers instead of bluntly hitting them.


This keeps the pressure on the board, not on your knife. The result:

Less wear

Less sharpening

More joy in cutting

Ideal for high-quality kitchen knives – whether Santoku, chef's knife, or Damascus steel.

FAQs

Do you have questions? We have answers!

Title

Can I cut raw meat on the board?

Yes, absolutely! Our wooden cutting boards are the only ones worldwide that are HACCP-certified together with the care set – this is the hygiene standard required in professional kitchens and restaurants. This means: scientifically proven no critical bacteria if you treat the board with the HACCP cleaner after each use. So you can safely process raw meat, fish, or poultry on it – just as hygienic as plastic, but with all the advantages of wood.

How do I properly care for the board to make it last a long time?

Care is easier than many think. After each use, wipe the board with a damp cloth and some dish soap, dry it thoroughly, and let it air dry (not in direct sunlight or on the heater). Once a month – or when the wood looks a bit drier – treat it with care oil. Simply apply generously, let it soak in, done. With this routine, your board will last a lifetime. Important: never put it in the dishwasher or soak it in water for a long time.

What do I need the juice groove for?

The juice groove is a continuous indentation along the edge of the board that catches liquids. This is especially practical when you cut juicy fruit, tomatoes, or meat – the juice doesn’t spill over the edge onto the countertop. If you mainly cut vegetables, bread, or dry ingredients, you don’t need a juice groove. Tip: With the version without a juice groove, you have the full work surface available and can use the board more flexibly.

Can I put the board in the dishwasher?

No, please never! The heat and the large amount of water in the dishwasher would cause the wood to swell, warp, and crack. Wood is a natural material that reacts sensitively to extreme moisture and temperature changes. Cleaning by hand is quick and easy with our HACCP cleaner – done in under a minute.

Does the board warp over time?

With proper care, no. Walnut is a very dimensionally stable hardwood, and our end-grain construction further minimizes the risk of warping. It is important that you never leave the board wet for extended periods, do not place it on the heater, and oil it regularly. The versions with cutting board stoppers or feet have the advantage that air circulates under the board – this helps with even drying and prevents deformation.

Can I also use the board for serving?

Absolutely! Especially the version with silver aluminum feet is a real eye-catcher on the dining table. The dark walnut grain looks elegant and makes the board the perfect serving platter for cheese, charcuterie, bread, or antipasti. Many of our customers deliberately use the board on both sides: one side for cutting, the other for serving. Tip: If you want to use the board often for serving, choose the version with aluminum feet – they look the most elegant.

What should I do if the board gets scratched?

That is completely normal and part of the patina of a well-used board! If the board is more worn after years of intensive use, you can always sand it yourself with fine sandpaper (grit 120-180) and then oil it again – it will look like new again. 

What is my return policy?

We want to ensure that you are completely satisfied with your purchase. Therefore, we offer a return of all unused items within 30 days of the purchase date. Please contact our customer service to initiate the return process.
