    Default Pepper mills

    I love fresh ground black pepper but cannot seem to find a mill that is easy to handle, functions and grinds smoothly and will LAST. Has anybody any body suggestions, preferably from experience. Thank you much!

    I had the same dilemma recently, so I asked on some cooking forums and received multiple recommendations for this one, it also has a ton of reviews on Amazon.

    Amazon.com: Unicorn Magnum Plus Pepper Mill 9-in.: Kitchen & Dining

    Got it and I must say it works great.
    It take a lot of pepper grinds easy and plenty.
    Some reviewers say it is easy to open when grinding, but I have never had a problem.

    I have had mine for years, no issues no matter what type of peppercorns I put in it

    Peugeot with a ceramic grinder. (They make metal grinders as well, but the ceramic one is really nice.)

    They do grind finer with a small adjustability but I like mine alot.

    We have a Peugeot as well. Got it for my wife a few years ago and she loves it.

    I should have known that SRP would be the place for a refined pepper mill discussion!

    Seriously, buy a Peugeot. No, not the car. They were making pepper mills long before autos. Buy the best and you'll only cry once.

    I would second the Peugeot. I also tend to buy relatively small quantities of pepper at the bulk section and don't fill up the mill so that it's fresher (to me there is a difference). My store has a good turnover though.

    You should check them out in a good kitchen store, see how they feel.
