Care Instructions for spice mills

Application:

Before use, it is recommended to grind a small amount through the mill's grinding mechanism and then discard it.

In most mills, the handle is located inside the mill body and must be installed before the mill is used for the first time. Unscrew the bolt at the top of the mill and remove the top, take out the handle, put the top back on, place the handle on top of it and screw the nut on.

All mills listed as pepper mills are made for pepper, but can also grind dried spices. It is generally not recommended to grind spices with a soft core in these mills.

Salt should only be ground in mills listed as salt mills.

The coffee grinders are fitted with a removable container at the bottom to collect the ground coffee.

To insert peppercorns, coffee beans or salt, unscrew the bolt at the top of the mill and remove the top. You can determine the coarseness you want to produce by adjusting the screw at the bottom of the mill. Salt mills are not adjustable.

However, the Chefs Mate model is refilled from the door on the side of the mill and the coarseness is set on the screw at the top of the mill.

Care:

The exterior of brass and copper mills will naturally oxidize and develop a patina over time and through use.

If you want to maintain a bright and new appearance, you can polish the outside of the mill with a soft cloth applied with regular metal polish.

Never wash or immerse the mill in water as water will corrode the mechanism.
