Salt Mill | Bistro Salt Grinder | 4 inch Dark Brown | Peugeot DP278

Q: What type of salt is best for this Peugeot Bistro salt mill?

A: It's designed for dry coarse rock salt, with crystals 4mm or smaller. Avoid using wet sea salt, grey salt, or fleur de sel as their moisture content can corrode the mechanism.

Q: How do I adjust the grind from fine to coarse?

A: It's simple! Just turn the metal knob on the top. Tighten it for a finer grind and  loosen it for a coarser one.

Q: Can I use this mill for pepper or other spices?

A: No, this is a dedicated salt mill. Peugeot uses a different mechanism for its pepper mills, which is designed to crack and  grind peppercorns. Using pepper in this mill can damage it.

Q: How do I clean the wooden body?

A: Simply wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Never submerge the mill in water or place it in a dishwasher, as this will damage the wood and  the mechanism.

Q: What makes the Peugeot grinding mechanism special?

A: It's made from case-hardened steel and  treated with a patented process to protect it from corrosion and  keep it razor-sharp for a lifetime of use.

Q: Is the mill difficult to refill?

A: Not at all. You just unscrew the top knob, lift the head, and  you have a wide opening to pour the salt crystals into.

Q: Will the dark brown finish wear off over time?

A: The Bistro mill is made from high-quality stained beechwood. With proper care (wiping with a dry cloth), the finish will remain beautiful for years.

Q: Is this a suitable size for a busy restaurant pass?

A: At 4 inches, this model is designed primarily for tabletop use. For a busy kitchen pass, you might consider a larger Peugeot model to reduce refill frequency.
