Know before you buy
No, this specific model is engineered exclusively for dry salt crystals. Using it with peppercorns or other spices may damage the stainless steel mechanism.
The grind is adjusted by turning the knob on the top of the mill. Tightening the knob produces a finer grind, while loosening it allows for a coarser texture.
This mill is designed to perform best with dry sea salt or rock salt. Avoid using moist or fleur de sel, as the high moisture content can clog the stainless steel grinding mechanism.
The Royan features a convenient top-fill design. Simply unscrew the top knob, remove the wooden cap, and pour your salt directly into the reservoir.
The lifetime warranty covers the stainless steel grinding mechanism against manufacturing defects. The wooden body of the mill is covered by a separate 5-year warranty.
