While the mill works for both, it's recommended to dedicate one mill per spice (salt or pepper) to avoid mixing flavors. The mill comes with interchangeable 'S' and 'P' caps if you choose to swap contents and want to identify them.
This mill is designed for coarse salt (like sea salt or Himalayan salt) and whole peppercorns (such as black, white, or mixed peppercorns). Do not use pre-ground spices, fine table salt, or any wet seasonings, as these can damage the ceramic grinder.
To clean, simply wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Do not submerge the mill in water or put it in a dishwasher, as this can damage the internal ceramic mechanism and the finish. Ensure it is completely dry before refilling.
