Default How many coats of oil should you put on a new solid wood worktop?

We've just installed one in our new kitchen. We put 2 coats on before
the appliances and sink were fitted. It's a Junckers worktop and we
used Junckers oil. The kitchen fitter thought 2 coats was sufficient.
I don't want to add any more coats if not neccessary as I want to keep
the colour as light as possible.
Any ideas?
How frequently should we re-oil the worktop?
