Know before you buy
The u'Select system features a ring at the base of the mill with six numbered settings. Simply twist the ring to click into your preferred grind size, ranging from a fine powder to a coarse, crunchy texture.
The salt mill is designed for dry rock salt up to 4mm, and the pepper mill is optimized for dry, hard peppercorns up to 5mm. Avoid using wet, flaky, or fleur de sel salts, as these can clog the mechanism.
Yes, they feature a top-fill design. Simply unscrew the metal knob at the top to remove the cap and pour your salt or peppercorns directly into the wooden body.
These mills are not dishwasher safe. To clean, wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth; do not use water or cleaning agents, as the moisture can damage the beechwood finish.
Peugeot provides a lifetime warranty specifically for the grinding mechanism itself. This covers any functional defects in the stainless steel or ceramic components under normal household use.
No, the internal mechanisms are engineered differently. The pepper mill uses a steel mechanism designed to crack peppercorns, while the salt mill uses a ceramic mechanism specifically built to resist corrosion from salt.
