Microplane Spice Mill

This mill is specifically designed for hard, whole spices like nutmeg, cinnamon sticks, cloves, and star anise. It is not intended for soft or oily spices like peppercorns or seeds, which may clog the mechanism.

The grind texture is controlled manually by the amount of pressure you apply while twisting. Applying firmer pressure against the blade will result in a finer powder, while lighter pressure yields a slightly coarser texture.

While the stainless steel components are durable, we recommend hand-washing the mill with warm, soapy water and a brush to preserve the sharpness of the blades and ensure the unit dries completely.

Yes, the mill features a storage compartment that allows you to keep whole spices inside, making it convenient to grind fresh amounts whenever you need them without having to reload.

A standard pepper mill uses a burr mechanism designed to crack peppercorns, whereas this Microplane mill uses a razor-sharp photo-etched blade designed to shave and pulverize hard spices into a fine powder.
