FAQs

Is this brush dishwasher safe?

No, this brush is not dishwasher safe. The natural bristles and handle material will be damaged by dishwasher heat and detergents; it should be hand washed only.

What is the diameter of the brush head?

The brush head has a diameter of 15mm (1.5cm).

Can I use this for hot liquids?

Yes, it is suitable for brushing butter, glazes, and egg washes at standard baking temperatures, but it should not be used on open flames or directly on extremely high-heat surfaces.

What are the bristles made of?

This brush is constructed with high-quality natural bristles.

Is this suitable for home use?

Absolutely. While it is built to commercial standards, it is an excellent tool for any home baker looking for professional results.

Troubleshooting

Bristles are shedding significantly.

It is normal for a few loose bristles to shed during initial use; rinse the brush thoroughly and comb through the bristles gently to remove any loose strands before use.

Bristles are stiff or matted.

Wash the bristles in warm, soapy water to remove dried egg or fat, then gently smooth the bristles back into their original round shape before letting them air dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent liquid retention for uniform glazing
  • Precise 15mm size for detailed, delicate work
  • Sturdy construction suited for commercial kitchens
  • Balanced handle design for comfort

Cons

  • Requires manual cleaning to prevent bristle damage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This brush is ready to use right out of the packaging. To ensure the longevity of your Matfer Bourgeat Pastry Brush, avoid leaving it submerged in water, as this can degrade the natural bristle binding and the handle material.

Care Instructions:

  1. Hand wash the bristles gently using warm, soapy water immediately after use.
  2. Rinse thoroughly and shake off excess moisture.
  3. Hang the brush to dry naturally with the bristles pointing downwards, or lay it flat on a clean, absorbent cloth.
  4. Do not place in a dishwasher, as the high heat and harsh detergents will quickly ruin the natural bristles.
