Know before you buy
Unlike metal burrs that slice peppercorns, the Resonant mill uses a rough granite surface to crush them. This traditional grain-mill approach produces a more textured, uneven grind that many chefs prefer for a rustic finish.
No formal seasoning is required. The stone naturally improves with use; as the oils from your peppercorns absorb into the granite, the grinding surfaces will gradually smooth out, making the operation feel more fluid over time.
It is designed primarily for peppercorns. While it can handle other dry, hard spices, we recommend dedicating it to pepper to prevent flavor cross-contamination, as the porous nature of the stone may retain oils.
Simply wipe the exterior ash wood with a dry or slightly damp cloth to maintain the finish. Avoid submerging the mill in water, as the granite interior should be kept dry to preserve its grinding integrity.
The Resonant mill is a manual, tactile tool that relies on your grinding motion rather than a mechanical dial. You can control the coarseness by adjusting the pressure and speed of your turn, allowing for a more intuitive, hands-on experience.
