What you need to know about cutting board oil.
Why grapeseed oil?
A cutting board oil has to be suitable for food, because you cut your food on it. Grapeseed oil is food safe. It is thin, soaks well into the wood and has no smell. So you taste nothing of it. More about the choice in Which oil for a wooden cutting board?
How to use it
Rub 20 ml in thinly with a cloth, including the edges. Let the oil soak in for 4 hours and wipe off what is left on the surface. Do this twice a month. A new board gets a generous coat the first time, which can soak in overnight.
Which bottle?
With one board, 250 ml lasts about six months and 500 ml a year. The 20 ml bottle is exactly one treatment. The oil calculator works it out for your number of boards.
