Extended Product Information

FAQs

What materials is the grater made from?

The grating surfaces are made from high-quality, rust-resistant, durable, and food-safe stainless steel. The storage container is made from PP (polypropylene).

Can I grate citrus zest with this grater?

This grater is designed for medium/coarse and fine grating of firmer ingredients like cheese and vegetables. It is not intended for zesting citrus fruits, as the grating holes may be too large.

What is the capacity of the storage container?

The included storage container has a capacity of 480ml.

Is the container microwave safe?

The product information does not specify microwave safety for the PP container. It is recommended to avoid microwaving plastic containers unless explicitly stated as microwave-safe.

How do I choose between the two grating surfaces?

Use the medium/coarse side for ingredients where a larger shred is desired (e.g., harder cheeses for melting, larger vegetable shreds). Use the fine side for ingredients where a smaller shred is preferred (e.g., finer cheese for topping, garlic, or creating finer vegetable textures).

How do I ensure the grater is safe for food contact?

The grater is crafted from food-safe stainless steel, ensuring it is safe for direct contact with food during use.

Does the grater come with a lid for the container?

The provided product information does not mention a lid for the storage container.

Troubleshooting

Grater is not grating effectively

Ensure the correct side of the grater is being used for the ingredient. For harder items, apply firm, consistent pressure. Check for any food debris lodged in the grating holes.

Container is unstable during use

Ensure the container is placed on a flat, stable surface. Verify that the non-slip base is clean and free from debris. Ensure the grater is seated properly on the container rim.

Food is sticking to the grater

Slightly dampen the grater or the food item before grating. Ensure the grater is clean and dry before use. For sticky cheeses, chilling them beforehand can help.

Container seems warped after washing

While designed to resist warping, extreme heat or aggressive dishwasher cycles could potentially affect plastic. Hand wash if you observe any distortion or use a cooler dishwasher setting.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reduces mess by grating directly into a container.
  • Versatile with two different grating sizes.
  • Durable and rust-resistant stainless steel construction.
  • Container includes measuring lines for convenience.
  • Easy to clean, with dishwasher-safe parts.

Cons

  • May not offer specialized grating options (e.g., zesting).
  • Container capacity (480ml) might be limiting for large batches.
  • Fine grating might require more effort for harder vegetables.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The grater comes fully assembled and ready for use. Simply remove any packaging and ensure the grater unit is securely placed atop the storage container.

Compatibility: This grater is designed for general kitchen use and is compatible with a wide range of common ingredients such as hard and semi-hard cheeses, carrots, cucumbers, courgettes, garlic, and potatoes. It is not intended for very soft cheeses or citrus zest.

Care Instructions:

  1. Dishwasher Cleaning: For effortless cleaning, place both the stainless-steel grater and the PP storage container into your dishwasher. They are designed to withstand standard dishwasher cycles.
  2. Hand Washing: If hand washing, use warm, soapy water. The textured surface of the stainless steel can be easily cleaned with a sponge or brush. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
  3. Storage: Store the grater and container in a dry place. The grater can often be stored inside the container to save space.
