Know before you buy
No, the windmill palm fiber is firm enough to scrub away residue but soft enough to be safe on delicate glass. It is specifically designed to clean effectively without leaving scratches.
No, this brush is not dishwasher safe. The high heat and moisture of a dishwasher can damage the natural beech wood handle and the palm fibers.
Rinse the brush thoroughly with hot water after each use to remove food particles. Avoid soaking the brush in water, and always store it flat in a dry, well-ventilated area to prevent the wood from warping.
With an overall length of 360mm, this brush is well-suited for most standard kitchen bottles, carafes, and narrow-necked containers.
Windmill palm fiber is naturally durable and holds its shape well, providing a firm scrubbing action that is often more effective at lifting grease than soft synthetic bristles. It is also a sustainable, biodegradable alternative to plastic brushes.
