Questions and Answers
Q: Can I use any salt in this mill?
A: Rock salt or dry, coarse sea salt works well. Avoid light finishing salts like Maldon or fleur de sel, as these are too light and friable for a mill and are better sprinkled by hand.
Q: Can I use it for pepper too?
A: No, always use dedicated mills for salt and pepper. Even a ceramic mechanism designed for salt may not be optimised for grinding pepper, and mixing the two isn't recommended.
Q: Should I use it over a steaming pot?
A: No, never use a mill above steam, as it can cake salt onto the mechanism and stop it working properly.
Q: How do I adjust the grind?
A: Turn the knob at the top, tightening for a finer grind or loosening for a coarser one.
