Maintenance and Care

Proper care will ensure the longevity and performance of your Grinder & Shaker.

  • Cleaning: The unit is not dishwasher safe. Hand wash all components with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before reassembling or refilling.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the freshness of your salt and peppercorns.
  • Grinder Mechanism: The ceramic grinder is designed to be non-corrosive and resist absorbing flavors. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or tools that could damage the mechanism.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Grinder & Shaker, consider the following:

  • No Salt Dispensing: Ensure the salt chamber is filled and the top cap is clear of any blockages.
  • No Pepper Grinding: Check that the peppercorn chamber is filled and the salt chamber (acting as the grinding knob) is securely attached and being twisted correctly. Ensure no large debris is obstructing the grinding mechanism.
  • Inconsistent Grind: Verify that the grind selector at the base is set to your desired coarseness and is not stuck between settings.
