Island Bamboo Pakkawood Salt and Pepper Mill

Pakkawood is a composite material made by layering thin sheets of wood with resin and compressing them under intense heat and pressure. This process creates a dense, durable, and water-resistant material that is ideal for kitchen tools, as it resists warping and cracking better than traditional solid wood.

These mills feature a standard manual grinding mechanism designed for consistent output. While they are optimized for a reliable, medium-fine grind suitable for most daily seasoning needs, they do not offer a dial for granular coarseness adjustments.

These mills are specifically engineered for peppercorns and dry sea salt. Using them for other spices, especially those with high oil content or moisture, can clog the mechanism and potentially damage the wood over time.

To preserve the finish, simply wipe the mills down with a damp cloth after use. Avoid submerging them in water or putting them in the dishwasher, as excess moisture can compromise the wood and the internal grinding components.

No, the mills arrive empty. You will need to fill them with your preferred peppercorns and salt crystals before your first use.
