Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Harbour View restaurant in Penzance, Cornwall, needed to replace their mismatched and unreliable condiment sets. They wanted a uniform, durable solution that reflected the quality of their fresh, local menu.
"We were tired of customers complaining about clogged grinders. Since we switched to these Cole & Mason mills, the problem has vanished. They look clean, professional, and they just work. It’s one less thing for our team to worry about during a hectic service."
Robert Davies – General Manager
The change resulted in a noticeable improvement in table presentation and eliminated negative feedback regarding condiments.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- To fill, simply unscrew the metal knob on top and lift off the acrylic upper section.
- Fill the base with your favourite high-quality, dry whole peppercorns.
- Avoid overfilling; leave a little space at the top to make reassembly easier.
- Place the top back on and screw the knob back in place. It's ready to go!
Keeping It Going
- To clean, simply wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Never submerge it in water.
- The grinding mechanism should not be exposed to water or aggressive cleaning agents.
- To adjust the coarseness, tighten the top knob for a finer grind or loosen it for a coarser one.
- Always use dry peppercorns, as moisture can clog the precision mechanism.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I adjust the grind on the Capstan CB029 pepper mill?
A: It's easy! Just tighten the knob on the top for a finer grind, or loosen it for a coarser texture.
Q: Can I put salt in this grinder?
A: This mill is designed specifically for peppercorns, which use a steel mechanism. Salt requires a non-corrosive ceramic mechanism, so we recommend purchasing a dedicated salt mill.
Q: How do I refill it?
A: Simply unscrew the top knob, lift the acrylic top section off, and fill the base with whole, dry peppercorns.
Q: Is the acrylic body durable enough for a busy restaurant?
A: Absolutely. It's made from high-quality, robust acrylic designed to withstand the rigours of a commercial environment.
Q: What does the lifetime mechanism guarantee actually cover?
A: It covers the grinding mechanism itself against defects or failure during normal use, for the lifetime of the product.
Q: What are the best peppercorns to use?
A: For best results and to prevent clogging, always use high-quality, whole, dry peppercorns.
Q: How much pepper does it hold?
A: Its 85mm frame is designed for table use, holding enough pepper for typical service before needing a quick and easy refill.
Q: How should I clean the mill?
A: Just wipe the outside with a damp cloth. To protect the steel mechanism, do not put it in a dishwasher or submerge it in water.

Ever wondered why chefs are so particular about their pepper grind? It’s because size matters. The adjustable mechanism on this mill gives you, or your customer, complete control over flavour and texture. A very fine grind is perfect for soups and sauces, as it dissolves and integrates smoothly. A coarser, chunkier grind, on the other hand, is brilliant for steaks or salads, adding a satisfying crunch and a bold, pungent burst of flavour. Think of it less as a simple grinder and more as a tool for fine-tuning the final taste of a dish. It’s this control that turns simple seasoning into a customised culinary touch.
