What is the difference between the Mineral B and Carbone Plus De Buyer pans?

• Carbone Plus pans are not treated with natural beeswax , so they leave the factory without the coating that protects them until they are received. Mineral B pans do receive this treatment (Mineral pans are given a coating of beeswax at the factory).
• Carbone Plus cast iron pans are designed for professional and very intensive use . When used constantly, this use is enough to cure them naturally and in a very short time.
• They are designed to speed up and facilitate the work of plating during services in professional kitchens .
  

As you can see, apart from their design, the main difference is in the beeswax treatment that is not applied to these pans and that is used in the Mineral B cast iron pans with stainless steel handles , specially designed for better use in the home kitchen. The Mineral B pans also have an elegant and robust cast stainless steel handle.

How to season your Carbone Plus De Buyer pan

If you purchase the De Buyer Carbone Plus pan for professional use, no seasoning is necessary, as constant and intensive use is sufficient to season it and create the patina that gives it its natural non-stick properties.

If the pan is for domestic use , it is advisable to double season it as follows:

1. Wash the pan gently with a soft sponge and a little soap, and dry it thoroughly.
2. Place a generous amount of potato peelings in the pan and cover with water.
3. Turn the heat to medium and let the water boil for approximately 15-20 minutes. This will provide the organic component that is missing from the beeswax treatment.
4. Carefully remove the potato skins and water, rinse the pan with water and dry thoroughly.
5. Put vegetable oil in the pan and heat it over medium heat until it is very hot, until it smokes and leave it on the heat for about 5-10 minutes.
6. When done, remove the pan from the heat and drain the oil.
7. Being careful not to burn yourself, spread the remaining oil in the pan over the entire interior surface to prevent rusting.

Note: Since the Carbone Plus pan is not treated with natural beeswax from the factory, it may be affected by environmental humidity, causing rust to appear at certain points. This is not a defect of the pan, but is inherent to the material it is made of (almost 100% iron) and can be easily fixed.
