| Leaving building a better mousetrap to others inventor William Bounds set about designing a new mechanism that would crush rather than grind peppercorns. The result was his patented 3-step adjusting ring and milling mechanism. In this ceramic and steel system metal does not grind against metal (a situation that causes other mills to jam and eventually wear out). Moreover you choose the coarseness of the grind and each of the three settings remains constant taking the guesswork out of crushing pepper. This tall and handsome pepper mill has a commanding presence and the greater capacity means you won t constantly be filling the mill even if you adore pepper.Brushed metal 12" High Adjusting ring for fine medium coarse Patented stainless and ceramic milling mechanism Limited Lifetime Warranty |
