Know before you buy
This mill is designed for dry sea salt or rock salt. Avoid using moist or flaky finishing salts, as the moisture can clump and potentially affect the grinding mechanism over time.
While the ceramic mechanism is durable enough to handle both, it is generally recommended to dedicate one mill to salt and another to pepper to prevent flavor cross-contamination.
You can easily adjust the grind by tightening or loosening the top knob. A tighter setting produces a fine grind, while a looser setting provides a coarser texture.
The mill features a protective lacquer finish that helps repel moisture and stains. Simply wipe the exterior with a soft, slightly damp cloth; do not submerge the wood in water or place it in the dishwasher.
Ceramic is harder than steel and is completely rust-proof, making it ideal for grinding salt, which can corrode metal components over time. It provides a consistent grind and is built to last for years.
