Why Choose Binchotan Charcoal?

- Long-lasting: With its impressive longevity, Binchotan provides consistent heat for extended grilling sessions, making it a cost-effective choice for serious grill enthusiasts.
- Distinct Flavor: The subtle, enticing flavor imparted by Binchotan enhances the taste of your grilled dishes, offering an unparalleled culinary experience.
- Craftsmanship: Each piece of Binchotan is meticulously crafted from various types of oak, combining the best qualities of lump charcoal and briquettes. The charcoal undergoes a rigorous production process, involving multiple stages of drying and heating up to 1,200 degrees Celsius over 8 weeks, resulting in a dense and durable product.

Maintenance tips
To ensure the longevity of your cutting board, we recommend regular maintenance with food-grade mineral oil and beeswax .
- Beeswax : As a preventative measure, apply a thin layer to the surface of the board. Let it soak in for a few hours, then remove the excess with a paper towel. Make sure to use a food-safe beeswax.
- Mineral Oil : As soon as the board shows signs of dryness, generously apply neutral mineral oil. Allow to absorb and reapply if necessary until completely absorbed. Then wipe off any excess. The oil must be food-grade.
- Occasional sanding : Once or twice a year, hand sand with 400-600 grit sandpaper to smooth the surface and close the pores of the wood. Then apply a new coat of beeswax to protect the board.
