Product Information
Full details
The Gefu Tedoro Salt or Pepper Mill is designed for home cooks and culinary enthusiasts who value both aesthetic warmth and functional precision in their kitchen tools. Its primary benefit lies in the high-quality, adjustable ceramic grinding mechanism that allows for effortless seasoning from fine to coarse. The main caveat is that the natural rubber wood finish requires careful maintenance to preserve its appearance and prevent damage from moisture or high humidity.

FAQs
Can I use this mill for damp sea salt?
No, it is recommended to use only dry salt crystals to prevent clogging the ceramic mechanism and damaging the wood body.
Is the grinder mechanism adjustable?
Yes, the ceramic grinder features a continuous adjustment system ranging from fine to coarse.
How should I clean the exterior of the mill?
Clean the wood with a soft, dry cloth. If necessary, use a very slightly damp cloth and wipe immediately with a dry one.
Can this be used for dried herbs?
The Tedoro is specifically designed for hard salt crystals and peppercorns; it is not suitable for soft or fibrous dried herbs.
Is the wood finish prone to scratching?
While rubber wood is durable, it is a natural material. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals on the finish.
Troubleshooting
Grinding is difficult or feels jammed
Check for moisture inside the grinding chamber. Empty the contents and allow the interior to dry completely before refilling with fresh, dry spices.
Grind consistency is not changing
Ensure the adjustment nut is not overtightened. Loosen it slightly to clear any debris and then reset to your preferred setting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To fill the mill, unscrew the top knob and remove the cover. Fill the chamber with dry salt crystals or whole peppercorns. Ensure you do not overfill the unit, as this can affect the grinding tension. To adjust the coarseness, rotate the adjustment wheel typically located at the bottom or top depending on the specific tension setting. For care, wipe the exterior with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth. Never submerge the mill in water, as this can cause the rubber wood to warp or crack. Regularly clear the grinding mechanism by shaking it gently to remove leftover particles.
