Microplane Spice Grinder

This grinder is specifically engineered for hard, whole spices like nutmeg and cinnamon sticks. Its stainless steel teeth are designed to break down these tough ingredients efficiently, though it is not intended for soft or oily spices like peppercorns or cloves.

Refilling is simple. The unit features a top-loading design where you remove the plunger to access the integrated airtight storage compartment, allowing you to load your whole spices directly into the top.

Not at all. The unit is designed to disassemble completely, which makes it easy to remove any spice residue. It is also dishwasher safe, though hand washing is often recommended to maintain the sharpness of the blades over time.

Yes, because the operation is manual, you have full control over the process. By twisting the unit more or less, you can easily adjust the amount of spice grated to suit your specific recipe needs.

The grinder features a soft-touch coating on the body, which provides a secure, comfortable grip. This makes it easier to apply the necessary pressure to grate hard spices without the tool slipping in your hand.
