FAQs
Can this mill grind both salt and pepper simultaneously?
No, the MasterClass mill is designed to grind one type of seasoning at a time. You must attach the appropriate internal cap to switch between grinding salt or pepper.
What types of salt and pepper are compatible with this mill?
It is compatible with coarse salt crystals (such as sea salt or Himalayan salt) and whole peppercorns (like black, white, or green peppercorns). Fine table salt or pre-ground spices are not recommended as they may not grind effectively.
How do I fill the mill with seasoning?
To fill, twist off the top cap, add your desired coarse salt or whole peppercorns into the chamber, ensure the correct interchangeable cap is attached, then re-secure the top cap.
Is the grind coarseness adjustable?
The product description does not specify an adjustable coarseness setting for this particular MasterClass mill model.
How should I clean my MasterClass mill?
Wipe the exterior of the mill with a damp cloth. Do not immerse it in water. For the grinding mechanisms, gently brush away any accumulated seasoning residue to maintain optimal performance.
What is the warranty period for this product?
The MasterClass 17cm Salt or Pepper Mill comes with a 5-year guarantee, ensuring confidence in its durability and performance.
Will the salt grinding mechanism rust over time?
No, the grinding mechanism specifically designed for salt is made from non-rust ceramic, ensuring durability and consistent performance without corrosion.
Troubleshooting
Mill isn't grinding or grinding is inconsistent.
Check if the mill is sufficiently filled with either coarse salt crystals or whole peppercorns. Ensure the correct interchangeable cap (for salt or pepper) is securely attached for the seasoning you are using.
Grinding mechanism feels stiff or jammed.
Verify that the mill is not overfilled. Remove any seasoning, then gently brush out any visible residue or blockages from the ceramic or carbon steel grinding components. Reassemble and test.
Difficulty switching between salt and pepper.
Ensure the entire top section of the mill is twisted off to fully expose the internal chamber and interchangeable cap. The cap needs to be detached and the appropriate one for your chosen spice securely re-attached before putting the top back on.

Cleaning the Exterior: Wipe the mill's high-gloss exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
Cleaning the Mechanism: Periodically, use a small, soft brush (like a pastry brush or old toothbrush) to clear any accumulated residue from the grinding mechanism. This helps maintain optimal performance.
