MANUAL FOR CAST-IRON PRODUCTS
Initial seasoning
Before the first use of your cast-iron product you will need to season it,
which in fact does two things: firstly it prevents rust and corrosion and
secondly creates a non-stick cooking surface for easy cleaning after use. The
first seasoning is extremely important, because you are removing any
undesirable contaminants from the production process in the factory. You can
use The Windmill® seasoning/cast iron conditioner (TWM090) and a cotton cloth
to season the cast-iron product(s).
Please follow the next steps (also see back):
- Wash your cast-iron product in hot water and thoroughly dry it afterwards.
- Heat a barbecue with cover or oven to 120 degrees, place the product for about 60 minutes in the oven which will heat up the cast-iron. Due to the high temperature, the pores of the iron will open up and that makes sure that all the moist will evaporate. This is very important since moisture can cause rust. Do not forget to remove the stainless steel handles before you put the product in the oven!
- When the pan is hot enough, rub some cast iron conditioner on the cast-iron’s surface with a cotton cloth. Not too thick and don’t forget the outside of the pan. The wooden handles of pie-irons should be removed when placing them in the oven of barbecue.
- When the product is well greased, heat it till it reaches 160˚C/320F. As soon as the product starts smoking, you can let it cool down.
- Repeat steps 1-4 for at least 3 times. The more often you repeat this cycle, the nicer the cast-iron will look after every cycle. After you finish the seasoning of the cast iron, it is immediately ready for use.
Caution: The knobs of the BBQ pans are made of Bakelite and therefor heat resistant up to 200˚C/392F.
Maintenance
After you use the product, it should be cleaned as soon as possible. DO NOT use soap and DO NOT soak the cast-iron in water. Both will have a deteriorating effect on the protective coating applied with seasoning. To clean the product use step 1-4. You can use the chain mail for stubborn stains. After these steps you can store the cast iron. Do not put cast-iron into the dishwasher.
Caution: Cast iron products becomes very hot. Do not just grab the cast iron products, like Dutch Ovens and pie irons, but use heat resistant gloves.
