Product Description
Cole and Mason, the leading Brand of salt and pepper mills worldwide, is synonymous with innovative design, product performance, and quality. Our extensive range of mills, from traditional to contemporary, has something to suit every table setting. Cole and Mason's standard mills are fitted with patented mechanisms, stainless steel for pepper and nylon for salt. Our Gourmet mills feature machine cut hardened carbon steel for pepper and ceramic for salt, while the Electronic and Inverta style mills all feature ceramic mechanisms for salt and pepper. The mechanisms are fully adjustable so they deliver freshly ground pepper or sea salt in fine to coarse grinds. All mechanisms have a lifetime guarantee. Our pepper mechanisms strip the peppercorns to break them into smaller pieces so that flavor is slowly released onto food, rather than crushing the corns and squeezing out the pepperin oils, whereby releasing the flavor very quickly into the atmoshpere. Stainless steel is an ideal material for the pepper mill as it will not corrode and can be made very sharp, giving improved variability of grind. Our standard salt mechanism has a unique anti-static, clog-free design and is molded for high precision with sharp grinding teeth. Nylon is used due to its hard wearing characteristics. Being non-porous, it does not absorb odors and is therefore suitable for salt.

This review is from: Cole and Mason Inverta Flip Soft Touch Salt Mill, Black Rubber and Clear Acrylic (Kitchen)
I have used Salt Mills forever as have always apprechiated sea salt, long before it was popular. I have had many junk mills, and I have to say this is the best Mill I have ever used......I think the only way to make it better would to be electric, but something about twisting the grinder for your salt is tactile and rewarding. The ceramic grinder is a dream, and is so easy to adjust. The upside down design does keep the puddle of salt off the counter and spice rack, the only improvement would be the inside of the top peice.....when grinding fine salt, the dust does tend to cling to the inside of the plstic top peice......nothing wrong with it, just not table setting attractive (it looks dirty). It say it has a warranty, but the way it works, it is so smooth grinding that I dare to think I would ever have to use it.

In fact, though described as a salt mill, these seem identical to the Cole and Mason acrylic pepper mills. Grind is adjustable and uniform at whatever setting, refilling is easy, and because it is open at the top, it doesn't leak pepper on the table when it is just sitting. In short, exactly the features I wanted.
I bought four of these which I am using for various types of pepper. I have black pepper in one, white pepper in a second, mixed red, white, and green peppercorns in a third, and toasted Sichuan peppercorns in the last one.
For salt, I prefer an open top container like the one Alton Brown uses on Good Eats.

Love the ability to switch from coarse to fine. Love the "flip" idea so you don't get salt all over your counter or table. Bought an extra one to use for crushed red pepper. Great product - don't spend a lot of money on those other ones!!! This one is the best!!! Nice, modern look as well.
