Troubleshooting

Grinder not grinding effectively

Check if the grind setting is too fine for the spice. Ensure the grinder mechanism is clean and free of blockages. Try adjusting to a coarser setting.

Difficulty operating the handles

Ensure the spice jar is screwed on correctly and not obstructing the mechanism. Check for any debris in the grinding path. If it feels stiff, check for even pressure when squeezing.

Spice leakage from the grinder

Make sure the spice jar is securely fastened to the grinder base. Ensure the grinder mechanism is clean and that no spice is caught in the seal.
