Maintenance Tips
-
Clean Immediately After Use: Rinse the brass die with warm water right after extruding to remove dough residue before it hardens and clogs the holes.
-
Hand Wash Only: Use a soft brush and mild detergent; avoid abrasive scrubbers, harsh chemicals, and dishwashers that can damage or tarnish the brass.
-
Dry Completely: Air‑dry the die completely before storing to prevent oxidation and corrosion.
-
Inspect for Blockages: Regularly check the openings for dough buildup, dents, or burrs that could impact bucatini shape and extruder performance.
-
Proper Storage: Store in a clean, dry place; optionally apply a light coat of food‑safe mineral oil for long‑term protection.
