"Exacting chefs want and need complete control over the seasoning of their dishes — and Vic Firth Gourmet mills give them precise control through a patented “Lock and Grind” grinding system. This unique mechanism ensures perfect consistency – whether fine grinds for fish, medium grinds for gravies or coarse grinds for meats.
Grinding is performed in a two-step process:
- First, the peppercorns are crushed to release their natural oils and flavors;
- Next, they are ground to the chosen consistency for perfect results every time.
Vic Firth Gourmet salt mills use a nylon crushing system to deliver variable granularity for salt. And all mills feature pop-out mechanisms for easy cleaning."
Cleaning Vic Firth Gourmet Mill
- "Unscrew the top nut
- Remove the top
- Empty any remaining salt or pepper
- Turn the mill upside down and pop out the rod by tapping it firmly against a hard surface
- Clean the mill with a dry brush or cloth.
- Push the rod back in from the bottom, making sure it goes through the grinder ring until it pops into place
- Fill the mill with salt or pepper
- Put the top back on, MAKE SURE THAT THE METAL KEY CLICKS IN ON THE ROD
- Screw on top nut while pushing up on the rod so it is flush with the bottom of the grinding mechanism
- The tighter the nut, the finer the grind"
VicFirth products are made of natural wood that may expand with excessive moisture or sun. Please make sure to keep your Mill away from any heating source and always thoroughly air-dry it if it becomes wet. Steel parts inside your mill have to be completely dry to continue performing well for years to come.
