According to the instructions, you should apply the oil first and let it soak into the wood fibers overnight before wiping any excess off. By protecting the wood from drying and cracking, as well as stopping moisture and food juices from soaking in, oil acts as a protector. This is the case with the board cream as well. Mineral oil and beeswax are both used to make it. It appears to be a sort of seal that keeps oil in and keeps other stuff out. I'm not 100% sure, but I believe it's to help keep oil in.
It consists of 16 oz of oil and 5 oz of
In addition to the oil and board cream, I use both products to maintain my 5' by 2' table and chair. My kitchen features a 5' butcher block top center island and a large butcher block table.

When I was first considering purchasing the Boos Block Essential Mystery Oil and Board Cream Care and Maintenance Set, I was concerned that it seemed a little expensive, not excessively, but somewhat more than I usually paid for the mineral oil I used The decision was made to purchase the item. Since I've learned to use this program, I'll never use another one. I found that mineral oil alone moisturized my Boos Block, but I always had to rub more oil on it every time I used With the Boos Block Mystery Oil and the Board Cream, you can lock in the moisture so much better. The program is simple to use and doesn't take up a lot of time. These boards are not drying even after moisturizing with these for several days. I have cut on them multiple times, washed them several times, and they are still looking good. You will get the most out of the set if you spend the money on it. The reason why this method is so cost-effective is that it works so well in the long term.
In comparison to the first set, the replacement was even worse. It's interesting to note that on the first set of boards, the board oil looked perfect, but the board cream was very brown, rather than yellow. The manufacturer's website led us to decide to return the set as they indicated that the cream was bad and shouldn't I returned the defective set the next day, and I received the replacement set the next morning. This was an exciting project for us since we are planning to use a Boos Block cutting board. immediately took a dim view of the package when we opened it. It is either too dark or too thin to protect the board. There is a darker brown board cream on the board than in the previous one. The product did not meet our expectations, for which we are very sorry. As far as I know, Amazon has too many of these In any case, we will not order this particular product through Amazon again, but we will go with a different vendor.
For comparison, I oil the other items but do not oil the one left. Clean-up also on that one will happen as soon as this review goes out!.
It is best to be cautious when buying. It is best to be cautious when buying. A counterfeit item was delivered to me. In the picture, you can see a bottle of mystery oil I purchased from a reputable source and two of the items I received. The bottle of mystery oil from Boots Block does not come with a sticker. Additionally, permanent marker is used to mark out the word "anti microbial" on the fake board cream in an attempt to make it look like.
It took me more than ten coats of oil (even though the wood was already this color after the second coat) but I kept waiting for it to stop absorbing the oil, which never really happened, so after using more than half of the bottle, I moved on to With this product, I am pleased with the results I get. I also tried it on my stainless steel appliances and it also brightened them. There are various reviews about the cream being so difficult to use, so I'm not sure what they're There was no need to apply elbow grease at all because it squeezed out right of the bottle. Although I live in a warmer climate, there was still quite a bit of warmth in my house when I took on this project. Or maybe the formula has changed? The truth is I am not sure. It is not clear how it will hold up in the long term. immediately went online to leave a review as soon as I was satisfied with the results.
It is a brownish piece of cream that is not silky at all. I have returned the first item that was delivered. Despite the picture showing a yellowish color, the color should actually be dark yellow. Immediately after the purchase, the seller replaced the item. Although I have received the product, it still looks the same, brownish rather than yellow. It sounds like it might be a good idea to use it on my Boos Block since that is where I will be cutting It appears that any cream I see from pictures or even in stores is yellow in It seems like the seller is doing a good job of replacing the item as soon as it breaks, but I'm unsure if the item is still in good condition.
I've become a total fan of this product. I enjoy having a Zen moment after my morning coffee, just using my bare hands to work the oil or cream into the board. My favorite part of it is the simplicity. It is 'preachy' Considering that we live in a throwaway society, it is absurd to spend time each morning on a board that you could probably just replace annually for less money than the cost of maintaining That's how things have turned out so badly. You're a Preachy You should oil the board regularly, and you should occasionally seal it with Oil is more vital and needs to be applied more frequently than the other two things, but both are still important. By penetrating the wood with the oil, it becomes protected from the elements. I put my board in the sink and wipe it off every time the hot water eats at the cream and the oil. The cream seals the oil onto the board. on storage shelves also need to be inspected After you apply the oil, wait a few days, and then you can apply the The total time will be four days, since you'll be working on both ends of the board. As for removing the excess the next day, Boos recommends simply rubbing it off. The amount of oil that soaks into the board after two days tells me how dry it is. The excess cream is wiped off after two days of application if there is any remaining excess. As well as letting the cream set for two days, I also let the cream dry for two days. Within two days, there's usually not much that needs wiping off.
There is no information on the label about what the mysterious oil is made of. In fact, I read the label top to bottom without finding anything specific. In my eyes, the bottle of plain mineral oil that I bought was really expensive and could have been bought for a few dollars anywhere. am not in any way unhappy with the actual product, but I do feel that I have been duped, to some extent. It was a good lesson to learn.
