Looking good on your worktop, the compact charging station will also catch any loose grinds to help your surfaces stay clean too.You should never grind salt in a pepper mill. The grinding mechanism for pepper mills is designed differently from their salt grinding counterparts. Salt will corrode a metal pepper mill grinder, causing it to rust and break. Pepper mills work by using a combination of gravity and sturdy mechanisms that grind the peppercorns. The best pepper mills are made of either ceramic or high-carbon steel because they’re strong, will not flake into the food, and aren't subject to corrosion like stainless steel. Ceramic will also stay sharp ten times longer than a stainless steel blade (ceramics are second to diamonds when it comes to sharpness), and you likely won’t need to replace it. When it comes to the consistency of grind, ceramic produces a slightly less consistent grind than steel because of the grinding mechanism. Peugeot mills are made in France, and each mill is tested before it leaves the factory. As a result, you’re likely to find peppercorns or ground pepper in the mill when it arrives, and you can be sure the mechanism will work exactly as it should. With testing, we found that the grinder excelled at fine and medium grinds, producing very consistent ground pepper. The coarse grinds were not as uniform, but still acceptable.

The Oxo Good Grips Pepper Grinder is professional-looking, efficient, and affordable. While most grinders have their grinding mechanism on the bottom, this one has the grinder on top, which means you won’t leave bits of ground pepper behind when you set the grinder down—a design feature that makes this model a standout.
