Product Information
Full details
The Vogue 18-inch wooden rolling pin is designed for professional chefs and home bakers who require a robust, reliable tool for handling large batches of dough. Its primary benefit lies in its significant length, which allows for efficient, uniform rolling of pastry and pizza bases in high-volume environments. However, users should note that as a natural wooden implement, it requires manual cleaning and cannot be submerged in water or placed in a dishwasher.

FAQs
Can I put this rolling pin in the dishwasher?
No. Dishwashers use high heat and intense moisture that will cause the wood to swell, crack, or warp. Always hand wash.
What type of wood is it made from?
It is constructed from high-quality, durable wood specifically selected for its strength and performance in commercial kitchen environments.
Does this rolling pin have ball bearings?
No, this is a classic, one-piece fixed rolling pin design, which is preferred by many professionals for its simplicity and durability.
How do I prevent the wood from drying out?
Regularly treat the wood with food-safe mineral oil or a wood conditioner designed for cutting boards and rolling pins.
Is the length suitable for home kitchens?
Yes, while designed for professional use, the 18-inch size is excellent for home bakers who frequently make large pies, tarts, or homemade pasta.
Troubleshooting
Dough sticks to the rolling pin
Lightly dust the rolling pin with flour before use. If the pin is brand new, ensure it is wiped clean of any production residue.
The wooden surface feels rough
Lightly sand the affected area with very fine-grit sandpaper and re-oil the wood with food-grade mineral oil to restore a smooth finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no complex setup required; the rolling pin is ready for use straight out of the packaging. To maintain the longevity of the wood, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe down immediately after use with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
- Drying: Air dry completely in a vertical position or resting on a rack to ensure airflow on all sides. Never leave it submerged in a sink of water, as this will cause the wood to warp or crack.
- Conditioning: Periodically rub the pin with food-grade mineral oil to keep the wood supple and prevent it from becoming brittle or absorbing excess moisture.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources like ovens or radiators.
