Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Acacia Butcher Chopping Board lasts for years, follow these care guidelines:
- Initial Cleaning: Before first use, hand-wash the board with mild soap and warm water, then dry thoroughly with a towel.
- Regular Maintenance: Always hand-wash after every use. Never submerge in water for extended periods and avoid the dishwasher, as heat and moisture will cause the wood to warp or crack.
- Conditioning: Every 1-2 months, apply a food-safe mineral oil or board cream to the surface to keep the wood hydrated and maintain its rich brown color.
- Storage: Store the board in a dry, well-ventilated area. If possible, stand it on its side to allow air circulation on both faces.
