      Already been there and done that. Dad called me to tell me he got the top off. Then he called me to tell me he cut himself. Bad. Ok, forget that. Then I found some cheapie grinders at the dollar store. They were filled with sea salt and stuff. Who cares, for a buck I dumped the crap out and now have a half dozen grinders with screw off tops.

      Got some for the gathering too.

        Yeah, they have those bad boys at ALDI too.
        I refill mine with Alessi Sea Salt and some nice peppercorns.
        They're like a $1.79 each filled up but I don't particularly like the salt. It's African Rock Salt and I just prefer other stuff better.
        Alton Brown says salt is salt but I do beg to differ.
        Fleur De Sel is better n Mortons. He makes the argument it's about size of the crystals but I swear you can taste the difference.

          Got some from Aldi's too. The grinder is actually better from the dollar store. Lol. They can call it what they want. Sea salt....whatever. I just dumped it out. It has a screw off lid, can easily see what I put in it and works pretty darn good.

              Ain't no bump...Found a safe way to do it this weekend...Louie had 4 sittin empty.
              1. Cap off 2. Stick it grinder down in a pyrex cup with water 3. Microwave for 2 minutes on high 4. Oven mitts...set the beer down ya need both hands 5. Grab top & jar it pops right off. 6. Get a beer let it cool & dry 7. Refill with fav's & snap the grinder portion back on 8. I did not go to the emergency room & I had another...Natty!

                    That's a good tip, even if the pics no longer show up.
                    Always figured you couldn't open and refill those damned things but now I know

                      I've always just wrenched the dang things off with my hands.
                      So far no shards of glass stuck in me mitts.

                      Not to mention the occasional campfire
