"Salt and pepper mills might seem small, but trust me – the right ones like Cole & Mason can elevate both your plating and your prep. Go for mills that grind consistently and look sharp on the table – your chefs and your guests will thank you!"

How Cole & Mason Salt & Pepper Mills Work

The magic of Cole & Mason mills lies in their precision grinding mechanisms. Unlike basic mills that crush spices, these professional grinders use a carbon steel mechanism for pepper and diamond-sharp ceramic for salt. The adjustable settings allow chefs to select their perfect grind—from fine dust to coarse chunks—simply by turning the top wheel. The grinding happens when the hardened mechanisms rotate against each other, slicing through peppercorns or salt crystals with precision rather than crushing them, which preserves essential oils and maximises flavour in every twist. That's why they're the choice of professional kitchens!

Safety Guidelines

  • Check Components Inspect mechanisms for damage before refilling—ensures proper function.
  • Handle With Care Avoid dropping mills—protects precision components.
  • Keep Dry Never submerge in water—prevents mechanism damage.
  • Heat Awareness Keep away from heat sources—prevents warping.
  • Proper Grip Use firm but gentle pressure—prevents internal damage.
  • Customer Safety Ensure stable placement on tables—prevents accidents.

Top Tips for Using Cole & Mason Salt & Pepper Mills

To keep your Cole & Mason mills performing brilliantly, clean them regularly with a dry cloth—never immerse them in water or use chemical cleaners. For pepper mills, use only dry, whole peppercorns and avoid grinding directly over steaming pots to prevent moisture damage. Adjust the grind setting before use rather than during grinding to maintain mechanism alignment, and store mills away from heat sources like ovens and hobs. Consider dedicated mills for exotic peppercorns or speciality salts to expand your seasoning repertoire.
