Chess-Shaped Pepper Mill with Adjustable Grind
Chess-Shaped Pepper Mill with Adjustable Grind
A pepper mill turned to a chess-piece silhouette in bold colour, with a stainless steel grinding mechanism and an adjustable grind.
The shape is the reason to choose it and it is not only decorative. A waisted chess-piece profile gives the hand a narrower section to grip above a wider base, so the mill is turned from a comfortable point rather than gripped around a straight cylinder — which is where a tall plain mill becomes awkward.
Adjustable coarseness from fine to coarse is what makes one mill cover both jobs: fine for seasoning into a pan while cooking, coarse for finishing on the plate. A fixed grind always compromises one.
Stainless steel rather than ceramic in the mechanism is the right choice for pepper specifically — steel cracks a peppercorn open, which is what releases the oil. Ceramic is for salt, where corrosion is the concern.
