Care

- Cleaning the mechanism: Unscrew the adjustment wheel and remove the ceramic cone. Use a stiff brush to clean both the grinder stone and the cone. If necessary, immerse the ceramic cone in warm water to dissolve any remaining residue, and allow all ceramic parts to dry completely, at least 24 hours, before reassembling.

- Use: Keep away from steam, as this can damage the mechanism. Use only rock salt or dry, coarse sea salt, never light finishing salts like Maldon or fleur de sel.
