Adjusting Grind Size with u'Select System

The patented u'Select system allows for precise adjustment of the grind size. A ring at the base of each mill conceals a 6-position adjustment technology.

1. To adjust the grind, turn the ring at the base of the mill.
2. There are 6 distinct settings, from very fine (setting 1) to very coarse (setting 6).
3. Select the desired grind size by aligning the indicator with the corresponding number on the base.
4. Turn the top of the mill clockwise to grind your spice.

Pepper Grinding Mechanism

The pepper mechanism is made of hardened steel with a double row of helical teeth. This design ensures that peppercorns are cut efficiently, rather than crushed, to maximize flavor and aroma release.

Salt Grinding Mechanism

The salt mechanism is constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, specifically designed to handle dry salt crystals (rock salt) up to 4 mm in diameter. It is crucial to only use dry salt to prevent damage to the mechanism.

Probleemoplossing

Grinding Issues

• No output or inconsistent grind:
  • Check if the mill is properly filled with the correct type of spice.
  • Ensure the top knob is screwed on firmly.
  • Verify that the grind adjustment ring at the base is not set to an extremely fine setting that might be blocking the mechanism, or an extremely coarse setting that might not engage small grains.
  • For pepper mills, if peppercorns are not engaging, gently shake the mill to reposition them.
• Difficulty turning the mill:
  • Ensure you are using the correct type of spice (e.g., dry salt for salt mill, not wet salt).
  • Check for any foreign objects that might be obstructing the mechanism.
  • If the mill feels stiff, try adjusting to a coarser setting.
