Roasted (Caramelized) Curly Maple

All of our Roasted Maple is sold out at this time. We hope to restock more soon, sorry for the inconvenience.

The roasted, caramelized, and/or torrified wood is heat treated and the darker color process is made by putting the wood into a dry kiln and bringing the moisture content down to 4%.

After that the kiln is vacuum sealed and the curly maple is heated at 360 degrees Fahrenheit for 4 hours. The end result is a permanent darkening completely through the wood.
