Grinding at the table is not a affectation, it is the difference between pepper that tastes and pepper that just adds grit.

Fill with whole peppercorns and coarse rock or sea salt, not fine table salt, which pours straight through and clogs. Acacia is naturally water-resistant but still wood: wipe it rather than washing it, never soak or put it in a dishwasher, and oil it occasionally with food-safe oil if the surface looks dry. Store somewhere dry rather than beside the hob where steam collects. Adjust the grind coarser for finishing a dish and finer for cooking, and grind pepper over food rather than into a spoon so the aroma reaches the plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it compares\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgainst pre-ground pepper, freshly ground has aroma that pre-ground loses within weeks of opening. Compared with electric grinders, manual mills need no batteries and nothing fails, though electric is easier for anyone with limited hand strength. Against plastic or steel grinders, acacia looks considerably warmer on a table. Against a pestle and mortar, mills are quicker and give consistent grind at the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I swap salt and pepper between the mills?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo — keep one for each.
