User questions & answers

Question:	Does this board need to be treated with mineral oil before first use
Answer:	This can happen with natural wood when the wood finders absorb the oil and swell. You can touch it up with a fine grit sandpaper.
Question:	What is the warranty for the 30x20 cutting board
Answer:	No
Question:	after Treating my new board with mineral oil the entire board is rough. Has anyone had the problem? Wood fibers are visible
Answer:	No, we don't have any covers for them, but they are pizza pans, not serving plates. I think covering the baked pizza would cause steam and mushy crusts.
Question:	Can I oil this board with almond oil
Answer:	I bought it specifically to cook pizza on because we like deep dish pies but even a 12 inch pan makes more pizza than 2 people can eat in a week!Cooks pizza just fine, once you get over thinking you are cooking on a dinnerplate... :-)

Butcher Block

The Butcher Block is the choice of the professionals and those who take their kitchen very seriously. It's a great quality board that requires proper care. It's a charm to work with - whether you're cutting vegetables or meat. You will enjoy this reversible board's side handles. It's built with care by our team of woodcrafters from sustainably sourced hardwoods. The Butcher Block is great for those who love to chop.

Northern Hardwood for Higher Hardness

WoodForChef uses Northern Hardwoods (hard maple, cherry, walnut, birch) as they make the best cutting boards because they are more durable. Northern Hardwoods have a higher hardness because they grow more slowly. Their closed grain means they have small pores for a smooth surface . They won't dull your knife like plastic and glass boards.

Wood that is too soft will be easily scratched and damaged. A good cutting board normally has a Janka hardness between 900 and 1500 (the closer to 1500, the better). Hard Maple has a hardness of 1450, Cherry of 995, Walnut of 1010, Bamboo of 1180, and Birch of 1260.

The Choice of Professionals

The Butcher Block is an end grain cutting board - the preferred choice among many professionals for its hard-wearing characteristics and traditional chopping block silhouette. It's built heavy and tough. You will enjoy this reversible board's side handles. It's built with care by our team our woodcrafters from sustainability sourced hardwoods. The Workhorse is great for those that love to chop.

Premium Preseasoning with Beeswax

At WoodForChef we choose the best for your board and that means extra care with a two-step preseasoning. First, we treat your board with a penetrating food-grade mineral (FDA) oil to fill in the pores and prevent the wood from drying out. Second, we apply a premium food-grade (FDA) beeswax that is translucent, has no odor or taste, and protects the wood surface.

The preseasoning also makes your board look awesome with a soft lustrous shine. We also believe the preseasoning will help you have a reference of what a well maintained WoodForChef board looks like.

Unique Character

Every tree is different and as such, every board has its own unique character.

HARD MAPLE : Is the go-to wood when it comes to wooden cutting boards. Maple's neutral color and subtle grain are a natural match for every kitchen. It provides an excellent cutting surface that holds well against daily chopping but doesn’t ruin a good cutting edge.

CHERRY : Makes for gorgeous cutting boards and if judging by color alone, cherry is the best of the bunch. A thick slab of deep red wood looks amazing no matter what you do with it.

WALNUT : Takes the cake as far as presentation go. If you want high-end, look no further. Walnut is prized for its rich, dark hue that can effectively mask everyday stains, as well as lend a chic look to your countertop. Mineral oil makes it extra shiny. Great walnut cutting boards require a very high level of craftsmanship.

Face grain

Face grain is considered the most attractive because it shows the full fibers of the wood. Long, narrow slats are glued together at their shorter ends, with the grain running horizontally along the cutting board (similar to a wood tabletop or cupboard door). Face grain is the most affordable of all the grain constructions and that makes it a good starter board. It is easier to handle with its lighter weight. Face grain cutting boards will show knife marks faster than edge grain or end grain boards and are not recommended for heavy chopping use but it is the most affordable of the three.

Edge grain

Edge grain boards are tougher than face grain boards and will soak up less moisture since the grain of the wood is not exposed. We still recommend you oil it regularly, but it's not as demanding as end grain boards are. Edge grain boards are a great balance between performance and ease of maintenance. Edge grain cutting boards can be thicker than face grain, giving the board more weight and body. Edge grain is a step up in both quality. It is similar to face grain in construction, the grain runs horizontally, but uses the thicker sides, or, as we call it, the ''edge'' of the wood.

End grain

End grain cutting boards offer the best performance in its high durability and ability to hide knife marks. End grain patterns are unique, they have a one of a kind aspect. It is the preferred choice among many professionals for its hard-wearing characteristics and traditional chopping block silhouette. The knife’s edge essentially goes in between the fibers, and when the knife lifts, the fibers close right back up. This catch-and-release mechanism reduces the amount of scratches on the board and is also much gentler on knives. End grain boards require more maintenance than other board types.

Product Care

Your WoodForChef cutting board can be washed with hot soapy water after each use and dried with a clean towel or by air. For further cleaning, the board can be rinsed with white vinegar or lemon juice. (1 teaspoon bleach to one quart of water/5-to-1 ratio of vinegar to water). Do not soak the board in water, this will damage the wood. Like all natural wood cutting boards, WoodForChef boards are not intended for the dishwasher.

Maintaining Your Board:

Oil and wax your cutting board on all surfaces every 4 weeks to maintain the original cream finish. This quick task will protect and prolong the board’s life and ensure it is enjoyed for decades to come.

Question:	What do you recommend to place under it to protect countertops

The History of John Boos & Co

In 1887, Effingham, Illinois blacksmith Conrad Boos used a Sycamore tree placed on three legs while hammering horseshoes. Three years later, a local butcher realized a wooden Boos Block could be used for cutting meat, and had one custom made. Word spread to surrounding small towns and cities and by 1911, John Boos & Co was shipping custom butcher blocks from coast to coast. Throughout the 20’s, 30’s and 40’s, John Boos expanded their production and product range to include tables and workbenches, the majority of which went to the war effort during WWII. By the 1940s, John Boos had earned their outstanding reputation for quality and craftsmanship, and John Boos butcher blocks were found in every restaurant, food store and butcher shop in America. Today, the traditional craftsmen work ethic is still alive and well at John Boos, where all boards and butcher blocks are still proudly manufactured in Effingham, Illinois. Often imitated, John Boos boards and blocks are favorites of professional chefs and can be found in restaurants and commercial settings worldwide.

Like all natural wood cutting boards, John Boos boards are not intended for the dishwasher.

Maintaining Your Board:

User questions & answers

Question:	If we designate one side for meats & other for vegetables how can we prevent the wood from wearing in one spot from overuse
Answer:	The 4.5 qt bowl is 8 1/4" across and 6 7/8" high. I don't know about the 5 qt bowl. Sorry
Question:	How do I process a warranty claim? My board os clearly deffective
Answer:	Not sure if this answers your question or not but here it goes: The bottom diameter measures 3 1/2" and is notched to lock into place. The top diameter measures 8 1/2".
Question:	does the grain run length wise or vertically, assuming the longest sides of the rectangle are horizontal
Answer:	Don't know why you wish to size down but I would imagine a stainless steel 4.5 would work with your artisan 5 qt. mixer. Some have tried the glass bowl and said it works. .5 qt. = 2 cups more of flour etc. so I think it should not be a problem. Besides the 5 qt. mixer you have may have more watts to handle the mixing with ease in a 4.5 qt. mixing bowl.
Question:	I see a lot of reviews about cracking after a short period of time period what type of warranty does this product come with
Answer:	Yes. I tried it with a 1 liter bottled water and there was room to spare.
