Know before you buy
This mill features a high-quality ceramic grinding mechanism. Ceramic is preferred for its durability and resistance to corrosion, ensuring it remains sharp and effective over time.
The mill uses a stepless adjustment system, which allows you to dial in your preferred texture precisely. You can transition smoothly from a fine powder to a coarse crack by adjusting the mechanism at the base or top, depending on the specific model configuration.
While it is specifically engineered for peppercorns, the ceramic mechanism is versatile enough to handle dried herbs or sea salt. Avoid using it for oily spices or wet ingredients, as these can clog the grinding mechanism.
The Augsburg features a top-fill design. Simply remove the stainless steel top cap to access the reservoir and pour in your fresh peppercorns.
The beech wood body is durable, but it should be kept away from excessive moisture or direct heat sources to prevent warping. You can keep it looking new by occasionally wiping it down with a dry or slightly damp cloth; avoid submerging it in water.
