Exceptionally fine, the Peugeot Paris salt and pepper mills are traditionally styled, brushed stainless steel finish. This particular model offers the u-select function, which indicates six settings at the base of the grinder for grinding ranging from extra-coarsely powdery to precisely. The difference between salt and pepper lies in the grinding mechanism. Peugeot Pepper Grinders use case-hardened-steel grinding heads with two sizes of grooves; Crack half into large slots the peppercorns and direct them into the smaller slots, making them much finer than most mills. The grinding mechanism in Peugeot salt mill is purposefully manufactured with 18/10 stainless steel, which will not rust from prolonged contact with salt. The top of each grinder unscrews for adding salt and pepper beans, while the round ball nut can be loosened or tightened to vary the grind of the grind.Peugeot grinders are partially filled with salt at the factory in France as part of final assembly and testing.
