My old Penseys pepper mill died so I phoned and they said it was
gauranteed for life and they would replace it with their new model with metal parts instead of the old style with plastic parts. It arrived within a week and looks gorgeous, very attractive wood. But alas, the mechanism is awful, difficult to turn and at its finast setting spits out chunks of pepper... there is no fine grind, the old plastic one was much better before it died (plastic rotted away). So I decided to look for something else and checked Amazon... they carry too many pepper mills, was difficult to choose but finally I decided on this $12 OXO: https://www.amazon.com/OXO-Good-Grip...ds=pepper+mill It arrived in two days, I filled it with peppercorns and gave it a test drive... PERFECTO! Grinding is silky smooth and will easily adjust from coarse to super fine. It's all plastic but the grinding burrs are ceramic so should last forever. It's very easy to fill, holds a substantial quantity of peppercorns, and allows you to see when it needs refilling. I was very pleasantly suprised at such a fine product at such a low price. |

I was very pleasantly suprised at such a >fine product at such a low price. this is the absolute best https://www.amazon.com/Kuhn-Rikon-Va...der+kuhn+rikon You can get a better deal on price at QVC, 2/$24.30 I've been using mine for 15? years. It has a wide adjustment range. Easy to fill, easy to hold, easy to grind, easy to clean. They are called 'spice grinders,' because they do more than peppercorns I've tried the ones Sheldon recommended and they just didn't adjust and I paid too much for the darn thing. Janet US |

I once had to restore the wooden part of an Alessi mill that had become damaged and I managed to get it back to new, sellable condition. I had to take it apart first and the mechanism was of superb quality. I wish I could get some of these "innards" as the ones I have for turning pepper mills are of nowhere near the same quality.

I've got a metal and love the taste and aroma of freshly ground pepper. When I need a quantity of ground pepper I use an electric coffee grinder I bought specifically for grinding spices. |

Mainly what drew me to the OXO was its crank handle, it'll grind a lot of pepper very quickly and effortlessly. Over 2,000 people bought it and hardly anyone didn't like it and of those that complained it was about the most ignorant reason... naturally the fill door can pop open if it's not held with ones hand over it, says so in the accompanying literature. Btw, Penzeys new replacement doesn't have the crank handle like their old one... pepper mills that require twisting a knob are a PIA, unless yoose enjoy the sexual simulation. Also, if the pepper mill you chose is so wonderful why didn't you post about earlier, why did you take the opportunity to knock the one I posted about, and then claim you had already bought the same one and didn't like it... anyone can make up a story after the fact while boasting about something they don't have, Janet B. Smith.... exactly like most RFCers, who constantly Tell about all the food they prepare and everything else in their life but never Show any thing... they are the Pinochios who failed 1st grade "Show N' Tell".

I still have it, even posted a picture of it some time ago. But in fact it's a coffee mill... and requires fiddling to change the grind from fine through coarse so I don't use it much... I leave it set on the coarsest grind, may as well call that cracked pepper. I just now posted some pepper mill pics, had I known that you were so infatuated with that mill I would have included that one too. |

I posted when I saw it. Don't tell me I have to go and take a picture of the pepper mill you recommended to prove to you I have one. You know I have a lot of photos of things that I have cooked, baked, grown. I have more imagination than to cook 2 dozen eggs and 20 pounds of potatoes in a fry pan to make dinner for 2 days. |

The OXO comes with a lid, but I prefer to keep my pepper mills in a small baking pan, eventualy collects enough ground pepper to use in a mundane stew. |

He likes the Oxo pepper mill. Great! That doesn't mean we are all going to run out and buy one. I'm *not* shopping for a pepper mill. But I appreciate hearing about both the one he likes and the one you have. I like getting honest feedback about products from people I know (that would be you RFC'rs). Beats the hell out of online reviews from strangers. ![]() As for food pics, I've seen yours, you've seen mine. We've both seen his. ![]() Next rant will be about people who don't have photos on the RFC website. Jill |
