The simple, elegant design of this electric mill conceals its most unique feature – an innovative form that captures excess salt & pepper immediately after use, preventing it from being deposited on surfaces when the mill is placed down. To operate, simply hold the unit with one hand & squeeze the flared lever at the top, until the desired amount of salt or pepper is dispensed. Release the lever & the base of the unit closes, sealing off the grinding mechanism & preventing further particles from escaping. Intuitive to hold & operate, No-spill Mill™ is easy to fill & has an adjustable, ceramic mechanism that grinds from fine to coarse grain.
