Product Information
Full details
This Salter Salt & Pepper Mill Set (COMBO-10190) is designed for home cooks and entertainers who appreciate natural materials and precise seasoning. Its key benefit is the durable ceramic grinding mechanism offering adjustable grind sizes from fine to coarse, housed in stylish FSC-certified acacia wood. A potential caveat is the 18cm size, which might be smaller than preferred for very frequent, heavy use. The set combines aesthetic appeal with functional, everyday performance for kitchens and dining tables.

Troubleshooting
Mill is difficult to grind
Ensure the mill is not overfilled. Check that the grinding mechanism is clear of debris. Adjust the grind setting to a coarser option.
Inconsistent grind size
Check the adjustment band and ensure it is set correctly. Make sure peppercorns or salt crystals are dry and uniform in size.
Wooden exterior appears dry or dull
Apply a small amount of food-safe wood oil (like mineral oil) with a soft cloth, following the oil manufacturer's instructions. Allow it to absorb before wiping off excess.
Top cap is loose
