Large brass mill - large brass pepper mill 25 cm.
Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout
When size and balance make the difference
The Large Brass Mill is designed for those who prefer a pepper mill with extra length, weight and control. At 25 cm, it fits naturally in the hand and provides a secure grip when grinding pepper over everything from a piping hot steak to a large pot of simmering.
The classic silhouette is inspired by traditional Greek coffee mills, while the solid brass gives the grinder a quality and weight that is immediately felt when you hold it in your hand. It is a pepper mill that is made to be used – and which over time develops the characteristic patina that makes each grinder unique.
For pepper and dried spices
The Large Brass Mill is developed as a pepper mill and is suitable for both peppercorns and dried spices.
The powerful, adjustable grinder provides uniform grinding and makes it possible to adjust the coarseness to both raw materials and preparation.
Suitable for, among other things:
- Black, white and green pepper
- Coriander seeds
- Cumin
- Fennel seeds
- Cardamom
- Other dried spices
A kitchen utensil that deserves a permanent place
Alexander Handcrafted Mills has been manufacturing handmade spice mills since 1977, and many of the company's models are still produced according to the same basic principles as back then. Solid metals, mechanical solutions and an uncompromising focus on durability are still at the core of the production.
The Large Brass Mill is not a grinder to be hidden away in a drawer. It is designed to stand out on the kitchen counter, always ready to use and with a design that becomes more beautiful the more it is used.
NOTE : The handle is located inside the grinder when delivered. You must remove the crank and install it yourself after filling.

Alexander Handcrafted Mills – Greek mills since 1977
Rune-Jakobsen Design has agency for the handmade spice mills from Alexander Handcrafted Mills.
The story behind the mills
Alexander Handcrafted Mills has been manufacturing spice and coffee grinders in Thessaloniki, northern Greece, since 1977. The company was founded by two mechanical engineers, H. Ioannou and G. Zarkadis, with a clear goal: high-quality, functional grinders, created for many years of daily use.
The grinders have been exported since 1981 and are today sold in more than 20 countries – but production still takes place in Thessaloniki, where craftsmanship, precise machining and personal quality control go hand in hand.
The traditional models are based on a portable coffee grinder that was developed for Greek soldiers in the field in the early 1900s – a simple and robust construction that has proven its durability for over a hundred years.
Materials and mechanics
All grinders are made of solid brass, copper or chrome-plated brass – the chrome-plated models with either a polished or matte surface.
The grinder is significantly larger than the mechanism in regular spice grinders and works in three stages – the so-called 3DCut technology: First, each peppercorn is cracked, then it is cut into smaller pieces, and finally it is ground to the desired fineness, adjustable from fine to coarse. The grinder thus grinds the spices rather than simply mashing them – this releases more flavour and aroma, even with larger quantities.
Pepper, spices, coffee and salt
The pepper mills also handle dried spices such as cardamom, coriander seeds, cumin and cumin. Selected models are built for coffee, and the salt mills have a special 38 mm grinder made of stainless steel and glass-fiber reinforced polyamide that resists the corrosive properties of salt.
Used by both private food enthusiasts and professional kitchens, the grinders can be disassembled, cleaned and maintained – solid tools made by people with a thorough knowledge of materials and mechanics.
Why have we chosen Alexander Handcrafted Mills?
At Rune-Jakobsen Design, we select products that are created to be used for many years – not just for the next season.
Alexander Handcrafted Mills combine solid metals, proven mechanics and local production – precisely our philosophy of fewer, better products. They are mills with a real history and a clear purpose: to function well, patina beautifully and last for many years.
If you have any questions about the grinders, Kari is available at kari@rune-jakobsen.dk .

All measurements in our webshop are given in centimeters (cm). If you use inches, here is a quick overview:
cm → inches: multiply by 0.39
inches → cm: multiply by 2.54
Examples:
| cm | inches |
|---|---|
| 20cm | 7.9″ |
| 40cm | 15.7″ |
| 60cm | 23.6″ |
| 80cm | 31.5″ |
| inches | cm |
|---|---|
| 10″ | 25.4cm |
| 20″ | 50.8cm |
| 30″ | 76.2cm |
If you need an exact conversion, a quick Google search — e.g. "20 cm in inches" — is the easiest solution.
Application:
Before use, it is recommended to grind a small amount through the grinding mechanism of the mill and then discard it.
In most of the mills, the handle is packaged inside the mill body and must be installed before the mill is put into use for the first time. Unscrew the bolt in the top of the mill and remove the top, take out the handle, put the top back on, put the handle on top of it and tighten the nut.
All mills listed as pepper mills are made for pepper, but can also grind dried spices. In general, it is 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 mills are fitted with a removable container at the bottom for collecting 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 cannot be adjusted.
However, the Chefs Mate model is refilled from the hatch on the side of the mill, and the coarseness is set on the screw at the top of the mill.
Care:
The outside of brass mills 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.
Our customer service is not a call center or an AI chatbot.
It's Kari or Torben.
When you write to us, you will receive a personal response from us — with in-depth knowledge of the products and a genuine interest in helping you make the right choices.
We have collected the most common questions in our FAQ and on the product pages. If you can't find the answer there, or if you want a product in a special size, you are always welcome to write or call us.
If we cannot respond immediately, you will hear from us within a few hours on all weekdays.
Real Products, Honest Images
For us, craftsmanship, materials and aesthetics take centre stage. Our product photos should give you an honest and inspiring impression of what you're getting – without unnecessary staging.
The vast majority of product photos in our webshop are therefore taken by us – whether it's a mill, a knife holder, a serving board or one of our textiles. The images of our wooden products always show real, handcrafted pieces, photographed before they are packed and shipped to their new owners.
To help you imagine how the products look in different homes and kitchens, we sometimes place these original photographs into AI-generated interiors or backgrounds. Only the background is artificial – the product itself is never altered or AI-generated. Every grain, edge, colour and detail you see belongs to the physical piece we made.
From time to time, we also receive photos from happy customers who kindly allow us to use them in the webshop. These images offer an honest and inspiring glimpse of how our products look in real homes and surroundings.
No artificial product renders. No misleading visual enhancements. Just real craftsmanship, photographed honestly.
Reference images when choosing a variant
We are constantly expanding our product gallery. As many of our products come in a wide range of sizes and variants, we don't yet have photos of them all. The image shown for your selection therefore primarily illustrates the chosen wood type – not necessarily the specific size or design variation.
Every piece of wood is unique
Wood is a living, natural material, and our passion is creating unique products with character. Grain patterns and colour tones will therefore naturally vary from piece to piece. Please consider our images as guiding inspiration and an indication of the quality we deliver.
In doubt? We're happy to help.
Questions about design, size, wood type or special requests? Don't hesitate to contact us at info@rune-jakobsen.dk so we can guide you to the right choice before you order.
Here you will find a comprehensive overview of all terms and conditions for your purchase from Rune-Jakobsen Design. We have done everything to make everything as clear and understandable as possible. You are welcome to contact us if you have any questions.

🇦🇺 Customers from Australia
We ship DAP (Delivered At Place) to Australia and GST is not charged at checkout. Whether your order will be subject to tax upon arrival depends on one simple threshold:
Orders under AUD 1,000: No duty, no GST, no fees. Your order is delivered directly to your door at no additional cost — the price at checkout plus shipping is all that matters.
Orders over AUD 1,000: Australian authorities charge import duties and GST, which the carrier will settle with you before delivery. Here's how it's calculated:
- Customs duty: approximately 5% of the price of the goods (the rate depends on the type of goods).
- GST: 10% of goods + freight + customs duty.
- Processing fee: a fixed fee for customs clearance from authorities and the shipping company, typically AUD 100–200 total.
Calculation example: You order goods for AUD 1,600 with AUD 150 in shipping.
- Duty: 5% of 1,600 = AUD 80
- GST: 10% of (1,600 + 150 + 80) = AUD 183
- Processing fee: approx. AUD 100–200
- Total import costs: approximately AUD 360–460 — on top of what you paid at checkout.
Good to know: The limit applies per shipment. So if your order is just over AUD 1,000, it may be best to either keep the order below the limit or add a little more to your cart so that the import costs are spread over a larger purchase — the processing fee is the same whether the order is AUD 1,100 or AUD 3,000.
If you are in doubt about what this means for your particular order, please write to us at info@rune-jakobsen.dk before ordering.
