FAQs

What type of salt should I use?

It is best to use dry salt such as sea salt or kosher salt. Avoid very large or moist salt crystals.

Can I use this mill for other spices?

These mills are specifically designed for salt and peppercorns. Using other dried spices may clog or damage the grinding mechanism.

How do I adjust the grind size?

The grind size is adjusted by twisting the metal collar located above the grinding mechanism. Turn clockwise for a finer grind and counter-clockwise for a coarser grind.

What is the warranty period?

The Cole & Mason Monaco Everyday Salt and Pepper Mill Gift Set is guaranteed for one year from the date of purchase.

How often should I refill the mills?

This depends on usage frequency. The clear acrylic body allows you to easily see when the mills need refilling.

Can I put the mills in the dishwasher?

No, the mills should not be put in the dishwasher. They should be cleaned by hand using a damp cloth.

Troubleshooting

Grinder is not working effectively.

Ensure the mill is not overfilled. Check that the top knob is securely tightened and that the grind setting is appropriate. If using salt, ensure it is dry and not in large clumps. For pepper, ensure peppercorns are dry and of appropriate size.

Grind consistency is uneven.

Empty the mill and clean the grinding mechanism gently with a small brush to remove any lodged particles. Readjust the grind setting; sometimes a setting that is too fine or too coarse can lead to unevenness.

Mill is difficult to twist.

Check for any obstructions or debris within the grinding mechanism. Ensure the mill is assembled correctly and not overfilled. If the issue persists, clean the mechanism as described in the care instructions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Stylish and modern appearance fits well in contemporary kitchens.
  • Adjustable grind settings offer versatility for different recipes.
  • Sturdy construction suggests good longevity.
  • Includes both salt and pepper mills for immediate use.
  • Clear acrylic body allows for easy monitoring of spice levels.

Cons

  • Clear acrylic may require frequent cleaning to maintain appearance.
  • Grinders are likely designed for everyday use, not heavy-duty commercial applications.
  • Warranty is limited to one year, which might be shorter than some competitors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To set up the mills, unscrew the top knob, remove the upper portion of the mill, and fill the acrylic body with your desired salt (for the salt mill) or peppercorns (for the pepper mill). Do not overfill. Reassemble the mill by replacing the upper portion and screwing the top knob back on securely.

Compatibility: These mills are designed for use with dry salt (e.g., sea salt, kosher salt) and dry peppercorns. Avoid using salt crystals that are too large or irregular, as this may impede the grinding mechanism. Ensure peppercorns are dry and of a suitable size for the grinder.

Care: To clean the mills, wipe the acrylic and chrome surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the acrylic. For internal cleaning, empty the mill and use a small brush to gently remove any residue. Do not immerse the mills in water.
