[Closed] What Pepper Mill?

Iceland do a grinder including the pepper for 90 pence, you won't moan when it breaks either

Peugeot make some of the best you'll find and they have a lifetime guarantee.

Cole & Mason, beech.

Cheap, brilliant.

LOL flashie I knew you would write that!

nandos do good ones....

Thanks for the pointers.

Call me fussy but none of those meet the design criteria.

Ive got a Chef'n pepper ball - another one hander. Works ok and its been around for a couple of years but I wouldnt want to drop it on a hard surface.

Anyone else old enough to remember the giant pepper bill fad?

This. The squeezy handle ones don't last long ime.

You can still buy 3ft ones but they are $190 !

Replaced my broken Cole & Mason with:

So far it's coping with my Himalayan salt crystals. 😉

You need to step back from the internet. Probably the worst thread on here.

Having a non-functioning cruet set is a right pita. Having broken loads of them I ended up paying more for quality. From Googling, seriously how sad, I found a review in a national newspaper where the RW outperformed the others. Only have the cheapest mind.

Now stepping away from the internet. 🙂

Aldi do the grinders with the peppercorn in too works fine no point in getting a refillable one.

my family thought i was weird when i asked for a salt pepper set for christmas.

Peugeot set is amazing. pepper actually tastes better then with the previous cheap set!

Le Creuset is pretty good.

Wm Bounds ltd pepper mills with a crank arm make your condiments come alive!

Or at least one will give many years of adjustable high volume pepper grinding.

WMF peppermill:

😆

Costco pepper grinder with pepper in. About £3. When empty, throw away and buy another. They do a matching salt grinder that lasts an equally unfeasible long life too!

Finally - after all my years of trying.

(Although [url= http://singletrackmag.com/forum/topic/standard-poster-sizes ]this thread[/url] seemed to go down like a lead balloon.)

Cole & Mason. Then send your best running boy to Kampot to get the peppercorns, obvs 😉

Surprised no-one has mentioned the classic Chris King salt and pepper shakers. It may not meet all the OP'a requirements but it does meet the requirement that matters: its bike-related:

I kept refilling a costco disposable one for about 8 years before it gave up the ghost

🙂 ^ I've been doing that with an Aldi 99p one for quite some time.

I've just had my Cole & Mason set replaced FOC under the lifetime gurantee after 20 years of use.
Bought them in TK Maxx for £15 I think.

If I get another 20 years out of this set, I reckon it was £15 well spent 🙂

+1 for Peugeot.

Although we have a set of Le Creuset sat in the cupboard waiting for the new house.

Currently using a disposable Jamie Oliver one (from TK Maxx, cheaper than buying pepper separate at waitrose) and unfortunately the pepper corns have outlived the mechanism.

The nice thing about the WMF Ceramill design is that it is effectively stood 'upside down' when not in use, which means it does not leave a trail of ground pepper on the table. I think a few other manufacturers have similar designs.

I think the grinding mechanism in the WMF is the Crushgrind mechanism, and it and the Peugeot mechanism are supposed to be the best.

I don't think much of Cole and Mason, having had one of their salt grinders. That said I am not sure salt grinders are worth having, and it's generally advised not use 'wet' sea salt in most salt grinders, with the exception of those which use the ceramic Crushgrind mechanism.

If you are struggling to get to sleep tonight, a browse of [url= http://www.salt-and-pepper-mills-plus.co.uk/ ]this website[/url] should sort you out.

£24 for this puppy!

Not quite 3' but close enough. The Daddy has one and finds it useful for prodding the unwary.
Got a leccy set for my Mother and her slightly arthritic hands. Not what the OP wants but a godsend for pepper fiends like us. Once you've eaten fresh peppercorns straight from the vine you'll struggle to get enough without one.

Thats not a Pepper Mill

I have resisted calling it a Sbobpepper Mill 🙂

I would buy that Baseball bat Pepper Mill like a shot but I am banned this month from buying anything odd

Ikea do a ceramic tinder that attaches to their spice jars. Ours have lasted well. Very easy way to grind fresh spices as well - much better than pestle and mortar.

As others have said, this is the worst thread ever. Everyone needs to step away.

Please, please, please tell me you are joking. If not, take a look at yourself.

Just looked at ours, it's made by Trudeau.

I bought this in TKMaxx when we moved into this flat (12 years ago). It gets used most days and still works fine

I like the electric one my dad has. I just use a pestle and mortar though.

Of coarse the Mill will have an effect on the taste of the Pepper. The surface area will be totally different and hence the perceived taste will be different.

I used some watches to hold the paper down from the winds of hate 🙂

You have broke the internet.

Stealth pepper mill?

Only one I’ve ever seen – Full size wooden wine bottle pepper mill. Bought at a second-hand sale for £2.00.

Agree TK Maxx is worth a look if you are near one – had loads of unusual cookery ‘widgets’ from there.

It's not a proper set unless it also has a mustard seed grinder.

I would just like to know where the 'disposable' ones normally end up. What a load of lazy-arse and polluting crap they are.

Pestle and mortar or gtfo 😉

Electric Cole and Mason. Perfect for my father in law who only has the use of one arm.

SPONG.
