Full details
The Olympia Combined Salt and Pepper Mill is designed for home cooks and restaurant settings where table space is at a premium. It offers the dual convenience of a salt shaker and a pepper mill in one compact 90mm unit, allowing for efficient seasoning with a single tool. While this space-saving design is highly practical, users should note that the smaller reservoir sizes require more frequent refills compared to dedicated individual mills.

What are the dimensions of the mill?

Does this come pre-filled with salt and pepper?

Can I put this in the dishwasher?

Troubleshooting
Pepper grinder feels stiff or won't turn
Check for jammed peppercorns in the mechanism. Ensure you are not overtightening the adjustment screw.
Salt is not shaking out properly
Ensure the salt is fine-grain and moisture-free. If clumps have formed, gently tap the side of the shaker.
Grind consistency is uneven
Clean the ceramic burrs with a small dry brush and adjust the coarseness setting to ensure it is properly locked.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: detach the sections, fill the designated chambers with high-quality peppercorns and fine salt, and reassemble securely. Do not use sea salt crystals that are too large for the shaker holes. For care, wipe the exterior with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use. Avoid submerging the unit in water to prevent moisture from entering the grinding mechanism or clumping the salt. If the ceramic grinder becomes sluggish, ensure the peppercorns are dry and free of debris.
