Those are really nice. I have made a bunch of 'em over the years & seeing that makes me want to do some more.

those are nice looking mills.
I want to find a "High Volumn" pepper mill.....one that puts out far more pepper with every twist of the knob.

If I have a recipe that calls for 2Tbs or more of crushed black pepper say like a batch of homemade bbq sauce I will use a my mortar and pestle to grind it up rather than my pepper mill. You can twist that mill a long time to get 2Tbs of black pepper. With a mortar pestle you can be done in less than a minute and you have complete control of the coarseness of the grind.

pretty cool stuff. i have a set of S&P grinders from Vic Firth, he was in the boston orch and makes drumsticks and such.......he then branched out to make turned kitchen items. his prices sure have come down over the years....... http://www.vicfirthgourmet.com/

I like the looks of those. I'm kinda a SS guy on everything that is on me countertops.... Pottery Barn Peppermill & I use a SS large shaker for Kosher salt that I think was made for Parmesan? (adjustable 3 different shaker hole sizes).... Found it on a vacation & have yet to see another one like it (but ain' been looking too hard ) ......

I think it was Emeril that had a battery powered Peppermill.... That was way cool!.... I would like one of those when I grow up

Wow I have the Curly Maple, Sis gave them to me for Christmas. I had no idea!
I use a coffee grinder if I need more than a couple of twists. I have one that I use only for spices, no coffee.

My pepper grinder is a Vic Firth that I got from the spice house. Don't have a salt grinder. I really am happy with the Vic Firth one I have. Makes it hard to justify buying one of those fancy looking ones.

Alton Brown uses a standard mill a lot of times (on good eats), with a cordless drill on it.
