Know before you buy
The extra coarse blade is designed for ingredients where you want a larger, more visible texture. It works exceptionally well for grating semi-hard cheeses like cheddar or gouda, as well as vegetables like potatoes for hash browns or zucchini for fritters.
The handle is designed with ergonomics in mind to provide a secure grip, but it does not have a rubberized coating. However, the tool features a non-slip end that allows you to brace the grater against your cutting board or bowl for added stability and control.
Yes, this model is dishwasher safe. While the dishwasher is convenient, we recommend rinsing the blade immediately after use to prevent food particles from drying in the teeth, which can make them harder to clean.
The standard Microplane zester features fine, razor-like teeth designed for citrus zest and hard cheeses like Parmesan. This Professional Series 2.0 Extra Coarse Grater has much larger, wider teeth intended for high-volume grating where you want thicker shreds rather than fine shavings.
Yes, it includes a reusable protective cover. We highly recommend using it whenever the grater is stored in a drawer to protect the sharpness of the stainless steel teeth and to prevent accidental cuts when reaching into your utensil drawer.
