FAQs
Is this grater dishwasher safe?
Hand-washing with warm, soapy water is recommended to maintain the grater's quality and longevity, especially for the plastic components. While stainless steel is durable, prolonged dishwasher use can sometimes dull blades or affect plastic.
What types of food can I grate with this?
This grater is suitable for a variety of foods including firm cheeses, nuts, chocolate, and vegetables like carrots, zucchini, and potatoes.
How do I clean stuck food particles?
Use a small brush, such as a vegetable brush or an old toothbrush, with warm soapy water to gently scrub any food particles from the grating holes.
What is the material of the grating surfaces?
The grating surfaces are made of durable stainless steel, designed for efficient grating.
How can I store this grater?
The grater features a loop handle at the top, making it convenient to hang on a kitchen hook or store upright in a utensil holder or drawer.
What are the dimensions of the grater?
The grater is 23cm in height.
Troubleshooting
Cheese clogs the grating holes.
Ensure the cheese is cold and firm. For very soft cheeses, try using a coarser grating side or slicing thinly before grating. Clean the holes with a brush after use.
Plastic handle feels loose.
Ensure the grater is not being excessively forced. If the looseness persists, it may indicate wear. Contact customer support if within warranty.
Grater slides on countertop during use.
Place a damp cloth or paper towel underneath the grater to provide a stable, non-slip surface. Ensure you are using a flat, stable surface.
