The best way to care for a butcher block is with a combination of Cutting Board Oil and Board Butter. Chopping board oil penetrates deeply into wood fibers, and board butter is a great surface protectant that also gives the board a nice luster. Our cutting board care kits contain the same board butter we've been making for the last 20 years and the same oil that we soak our butcher block in before shipping them to you. Our chopping board oil has a lower viscosity than some on the market, allowing it to penetrate and protect wood fibers better. Our beeswax is sourced from a beekeeper and conservationist in Ohio we've worked with for years. Most beeswax these days is sourced in China, and is often adulterated with large percentages of paraffin and stearin.  Ours, on the other hand,  is 100% beeswax and sourced exclusively in the U.S. (typically from hives in Ohio, North Dakota, and Idaho). 

Includes Board Butter (a mixture of Beeswax and USP Food Safe Mineral Oil in a resealable tub) and Cutting Board Oil (USP Food Safe Mineral Oil in a resealable bottle).

Available in three sizes:
Medium (4 oz Board Butter + 12 oz Cutting Board Oil
Large (8 oz Board Butter + 16 oz Cutting Board Oil)
XL (8 oz Board Butter + 24 oz Cutting Board Oil)

*As a point of reference, an un-oiled 16 X 22 maple butcher block can typically hold 12-14 ounces of cutting board oil. Boardsmith butcher blocks have been oiled prior to shipping, but they still need heavy initial oiling when you receive them.

How to use:

Thoroughly clean, sanitize, and dry the cutting surface of your board. Pour Cutting Board Oil on face of the board an ounce or two at a time until oil can no longer absorb into the board. This process might take a few minutes. Let dry and wipe away any excess.Using a soft cloth apply a quarter-sized dab of Board Butter and rub inFinish by buffing off any excess butter

 

This product is intended to be an add on item. Due to the weight of the cutting board care kit, we must charge for shipping when it is ordered on its own. To save on shipping, consider ordering with one of our other items to reach the free shipping minimum.

Note: Because these are consumable items, care kits can not be returned.

As Promised, Great Board

The board came as promised and looks better than I had hoped. The communication was great and the board is even better.

Decent

Nice board, but.... shortly after unboxing and treating it, I found a dark green spot on it. I emailed them to see if they knew what is was or how to get rid of it, or if they could maybe swap it out. I was simply told that it looks like metal touched it. I told them I highly doubted that this was the case, and they forwarded me on to someone else who didn't bother to reply. If I were to do this again, I'd try another company, to be honest. Kinda disappointed, especially at this price point. Hopefully the green doesn't spread, whatever it is

HI Chris, I emailed you but have not heard back. In case you are monitoring here--- maple has tannins in it that can interact with some materials, particularly non-galvanized steels. That small spot appears characteristic of that. If you put a few drops of pure white vinegar on it, my guess is it will fade significantly. Or, you can kiss it for 5 seconds with a piece of sandpaper since it's a surface stain. Or, you can leave it and it will fade in time.

There's nothing to spread. If your main concern is it's mold or something like that, it's definitely not. It's just a tiny contact stain.

If that spot makes you upset to the piont where you can't enjoy the beautfy and functionality of the board, that would be a real shame. I gave you my cell phone number and would be happy to talk to you.
