Maintenance and Re-seasoning

Proper care and re-seasoning are essential for maintaining your cast iron grill press and ensuring its longevity.

Pulizia dopo ogni utilizzo:

1. Raffreddare: Allow the grill press to cool slightly after use, but clean it while it is still warm.
2. Lavare: Hand wash with warm water and a small amount of mild soap. For stuck-on food, use a stiff brush or scraper. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive pads, as these can strip the seasoning.
3. Risciacquare e asciugare: Rinse thoroughly and immediately dry the press completely with a clean cloth or paper towel. Do not air dry, as this can lead to rust.
4. Light Oil Coat: Apply a very thin layer of cooking oil to all surfaces of the dry press. Wipe off any excess. This helps maintain the seasoning and prevents rust.

Re-seasoning Your Cast Iron:

If your cast iron grill press loses its non-stick properties, appears dull, or shows signs of rust, it may need re-seasoning. Follow these steps:

1. Pulisci accuratamente: Scrub the press with warm, soapy water and a stiff brush or steel wool to remove any rust or old seasoning.
2. Asciugare completamente: Dry the press thoroughly with a paper towel.
3. Applicare olio: Coat the entire press with a very thin, even layer of high-temperature cooking oil (e.g., flaxseed, grapeseed, or vegetable oil). Wipe off any excess oil until the surface appears dry.
4. Cottura al forno: Place the press upside down in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for one hour. Place aluminum foil on the bottom rack to catch any oil drips.
5. Freddo: Turn off the oven and let the press cool completely inside the oven.
6. Ripeti (facoltativo): For a more durable seasoning, you can repeat the oiling and baking process several times.
