The high-density press is the part that matters in the hand: the cube edges stay sharp, the faces stay square, and the block holds together under tongs instead of shedding into your tray. Gen 2 keeps that structure while lifting the heat output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare \u0026amp; Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore in a cool, dry place.
