The distinctive fluted design of the Palm Bright Medium Salt and Pepper Mills with Tray is crafted from the finest 18/10 stainless steel, with a polished bright finish that reflects the light and feels genuinely tactile in the hand. The mills feature a ceramic mechanism from CrushGrind, easily adjustable from fine to coarse and easy to refill from the top. A handy stainless steel tray catches loose grounds to keep surfaces spotless, and an elegant black and white collar and base clearly distinguishes salt from pepper.

Care
- Cleaning the exterior: Use a dry microfibre cloth, dampened for stubborn marks and dried immediately afterwards. Never submerge the mill in water or place it in the dishwasher, as this will damage the internal grinding mechanism.
- Before adding new salt: Empty the existing salt, add a tablespoon of coarse salt, adjust the grinder to fine, and grind until no more salt comes out. Remove any excess before adding fresh salt. This helps clean residue from the ceramic mechanism.
- Deep cleaning the mechanism: Unscrew the grey adjusting wheel and carefully remove the ceramic cone, keeping the spring securely in place. Wipe loose dust from the cone with a cloth or brush, then wash the cone in water. Wipe and leave to dry thoroughly before replacing.
- Use: Never use this mill above a steaming pot, as it can clog and damage the mechanism. Keep it dedicated to salt only. Use rock salt or dry, coarse sea salt rather than light finishing salts like Maldon or fleur de sel, which are too light and friable for a mill.
- Storage: Store in a dry location, away from steam or humidity.
- Dishwashing the tray: Wash on a short, hot cycle at 65-75C. Use a quality branded all-in-one dishwasher tablet, and keep rinse aid and salt (for hard water areas) topped up. Avoid washing with non-stainless steel metals, as this can cause rust staining. Keep dishwasher filters clean and use a proprietary dishwasher cleaner regularly. For stubborn stains, use a proprietary stainless steel cream cleaner.
- Handwashing the tray: Wash in warm soapy water with a microfibre cloth or non-abrasive brush. Avoid soaking, and dry thoroughly immediately after washing. Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners, as these will scratch the surface.
