Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Kyocera Ceramic Fine Mill, Black Top
Customer Review: Enjoyed it so much I'm getting a second one
Summary: 5 Stars
In mid-life, I'm getting more serious about nutrition! Once I learned that table salt can be downright toxic (robbing the body of minerals as it's digested), I switched to Amazon's great buys on "wet" sea salt, but needed a grinder. By spending quite a long time looking at all kinds of grinders and their reviews, it seemed this Kyocera was my best bet, and I ordered it.
It was a great choice. It performs beautifully. Although it's just a little bit pricey for my budget, to me the price is worth it, because the blades never dull. Hope to keep it for a lifetime. Due to reviewer advice, I don't let the cap get too far away from the grinder, and I do clean the inside of the cap periodically (because salt tends to collect there). For cap cleaning, I used to use a fine-tipped brush, but later discovered that tapping the cap vigorously on the metal sink edge does the job nicely.
One reviewer remarked the grinder wasn't practical for cooking, because it'd take too long to grind required salt amounts. OK, so here are a couple of alternatives:
a.) For dishes planned well in advance which include liquid, salt crystals can be added to the liquids to slowly dissolve (with time and stirring). Measurements won't be precise because crystals have more volume than ground salt, but will likely be close enough.
b.) For a quick remedy, crystals can be smashed on a cutting board with a rolling pin. The granule sizes will be uneven, of course, but for cooking, that doesn't much matter. Left-over smashed granules can be stored in an old glass salt shaker, labeled "sea salt for cooking."
My thanks to all prior reviewers. FYI, I'm back on this Kyocera page today to order a second grinder for another part of the house.
Description of Kyocera Ceramic Fine Mill, Black Top
Spices freshly ground always add more flavor to favorite dishes. Using Kyocera's ceramic grinder, you can prepare rubs, season salads and enjoy a variety of food with a simple twist of the inverted jar, resulting in a fine grind. The ceramic grinding blade is second only to diamonds in sharpness and holds it's edge 10 times longer than metal. A plastic cap keeps contents fresh when not in use.Herb & Spice Mills
