How to use

Fill the mill by removing the top cap or unscrewing the top section according to the product’s construction, insert whole peppercorns and reassemble. Hold the mill over the dish and rotate the top or body to grind pepper directly onto food. Adjust the grind size by turning the adjustment knob or ring (usually located under the top) to achieve the desired coarseness; finer settings require a tighter adjustment while coarser settings require a looser adjustment. After use, wipe the exterior with a dry or slightly damp cloth and avoid prolonged exposure to moisture to preserve the wood finish and grinding mechanism.

Usage recommendations

Store whole peppercorns in a cool, dry place to maintain flavor; for best performance, avoid grinding salt or other hard spices in the same mill to prevent premature wear of the grinding mechanism. Periodically check and, if accessible, clean the grinding mechanism of any residue according to manufacturer care instructions to ensure consistent results.
