A classical set of salt and pepper mills made from acrylic and beech from a sustainable source. The beech has been finished with a clear lacquer to allow the natural beauty of the wood grain to shine through. Featuring Cole & Mason Precision mechanisms that are covered by the lifetime mechanism guarantee giving you the confidence of many years of excellent performance. The pepper mill comes with a carbon steel mechansim that strips rather than crushes peppercorns allowing more flavour release with every turn. The salt mill comes with a diamond-sharp ceramic mechanism that ensures accurate seasoning with every use.Use the knob on the top of the mills to adjust the grind from a fine to a coarse setting. Coarse settings are ideal for steak, medium for pizzas and fine for soups and sauces. Hints & tips: If your mill becomes difficult to grind, particularly on a fine setting, trying clearing the mechanism. Turn the mill upside down, loosen the knob to the coarsest setting and twist the top. This will free any large peppercorns or salt crystals that may have become lodged. Retighten the knob to the desired setting. Do not put salt in your pepper mill as this will corrode the carbon steel mechanism.
