Maintenance Tips
-
Clean after each use with mild soap and warm water; wipe dry immediately to prevent moisture penetration and warping.
-
Regularly apply food-safe mineral oil or butcher block conditioner to keep the wood hydrated and prevent cracking or drying.
-
Re‑oil the surface every few weeks or whenever it appears dry; more frequent oiling may be needed in dry climates or with heavy use.
-
Avoid prolonged standing water, harsh chemicals, and abrasive cleaners that can strip oils and damage the wood.
-
Do not place hot pots or pans directly on the wood; use cutting boards or trivets to protect the surface.
-
Lightly sand any rough or stained areas before re‑oiling to refresh the surface.
-
Consistent oiling and keeping the surface dry maximizes longevity and preserves the butcher block’s natural beauty.
