Know before you buy
These mills are designed specifically for dry peppercorns and coarse salt. Avoid using them for wet spices, herbs, or oils, as these can damage the ceramic mechanism.
The mills feature a 6-position dial located at the base. Simply rotate the dial to click into your preferred setting, ranging from a fine powder to a coarse grind.
No, they are not dishwasher safe. To clean, simply wipe the exterior with a slightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly; never submerge the wooden body in water.
These are top-fill grinders. You can easily refill them by removing the top nut and cap to access the spice chamber.
The grinding mechanism is crafted from high-quality ceramic, paired with a stainless steel spindle. This combination ensures durability and consistent, uniform spice output.
