FAQs

How do I adjust the grind coarseness?

The grinding coarseness can be adjusted by using the mechanism typically found at the base or top of the mill (refer to product specifics if available). Turning it one way usually results in a finer grind, and the other way in a coarser grind.

What type of salt and pepper should I use?

These mills are designed for whole peppercorns and coarse salts like sea salt or rock salt. Avoid using fine table salt or pre-ground spices, as they can clog the mechanism.

How often should I refill the mills?

The frequency of refilling depends on usage. However, their tall 23cm design provides a generous capacity, meaning they require less frequent refilling compared to smaller mills.

Can I wash the mills in the dishwasher?

No, these mills should not be washed in a dishwasher. Handwash only by wiping the exterior with a damp cloth. Do not submerge in water.

What material is the grinding mechanism made of?

The mills are equipped with a high-quality ceramic grinding mechanism.

How do I distinguish between the salt and pepper mills?

Each mill comes with a distinct cap engraved with 'S' for salt and 'P' for pepper to ensure you can easily identify them.

Troubleshooting

Grinder is not working or feels stiff.

Ensure the mill is not overfilled. Check for any blockages in the grinder mechanism and clean if necessary. Verify that the grinding mechanism is properly assembled.

Salt and pepper are being mixed.

Ensure you are using the correct cap for each mill ('S' for salt, 'P' for pepper) and that they are firmly attached.

Exterior is dirty.

Wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or immerse the mill in water.

Grind is inconsistent.

Check the quality of your salt or peppercorns; larger, uneven pieces can affect grind consistency. Ensure the adjustable grind setting is properly set.

Care:
