The last customer review said there is no grind adjustment for the pepper mill, but it says it does in the features of the mill. I would assume it does have one, but want to make sure before purchasing item.

Hi Mary, After I received you comment/question, I checked mine closer and it does indeed have an adjustment knob. I found it under the grinder itself. Thank you so much for the information. I think it's a quality product and I would definitely recommend it.

There isn't a fixed number of settings; there's a little knob on the bottom of the grinder that you turn to adjust how fine or coarse you want your salt/pepper. So yes, you have a full range of options. (By the way, we've had ours for six months or so and *love* it.)

There is a screw in the bottom of the grinder with a groove (works fine with a flat-head screw driver) you can turn either direction to adjust the coarse or fineness of your grind. I played around with mine over a large piece of wax-paper until I got a nice mix; partially coarse/partially medium-fine. Good Luck! BTW, I love this pepper grinder. The seasoning of foods with fresh grind is beyond compare!

No, but my experience was that this grinder doesn't grind consistently anyway and sent it back. To the best of my knowledge there is a hamilton beach grinder that does that.

Haven't tried it. One side is marked with a P and the other is marked with an S but if it will grind sea salt it should grind pepper

The Original Pump & Grind mills were all designed the same way to allow the user to grind salt and pepper with one hand. The grinding mechanism in our mills is a stainless steel rod that has teeth, as this rod is pushed down through the contents of the mill it creates the grind. In conventional two-hand operated mills there are grinding wheels at the base of the mill so you can adjust these moving parts to create smaller or larger granulated output, with the Pump and Grind mill there are no mechanisms to adjust. I hope this help to better understand how our Original Pump & Grind mills work as opposed to the conventional two-hand operated mills. Have a great day.

I only have the pepper grinder, but it has the best grind adjustment capability of any grinder I have seen. I would have to believe the salt grinder would be equally adjustable.

Sandy, I haven't used the grinder for anything but pepper...but I will tell you I have not yet figured out the "trick" to fill this thing!....I am used to my old grinder which you just unscrewed and the top came off givving a wide fill opening. This grinder does not come apart and requires you to fill through the very small opening around the top...literally takes an hour to fill completely!....why do I stay with it?....it is a favorite on the table in its ease to use...the crank is great compared to the "normal" wrist turning required. Just wish I could figure out how to fill it easier!!! Sur wouln't be good for changing contents out very often.....

yes it does , it located at the front of the grinder,that looped nobb thing tight for a fine grind loosen for coarse. you ll need to play around abit to fine the grind that suits you.

No, the newer model seems to deliver slightly less salt or pepper than the older one. There is no visible reason, but perhaps the clearances are a little tighter on the grinding shaft.

The small grinder will fit the palm of your hand. The small grinder can not be adjusted to make a finer mist of pepper or spices, like the large grinder. The larger grinder has an adjustment wheel on the bottom for fine or course ground pepper(where the pepper or spice come out).

It does but the grinds become very inconsistent past a medium grind. There is just too much free movement in the grinding mechanism past medium. Anything smaller is fantastic, use it for my espresso daily.

. This is fully adjustable. I like my pepper course. This does a great job. I have mine set very high so lots of paper comes out fast.

Yes it does and the angle is also adjustable. This grinder is very high quality and rugged. Excellent choice!

No adjustment is necessary. It all depends on how long you run it. I use a medium to fine grind and I count to 10 when I run it. I've used several burr grinders that are far more expensive and they tend to clog and some of the grind is fine and some course in the same batch. Right now I'm using a grind-n-brew coffee pot from Cuisinart that my kids gave me but I don't use their grinder. I use this one.

No, it doesn't incorporate a grinder. We have a separate grinder so that we can grind to the consistency we like. It does make great lattes, cappuccinos, and coffee. The timer is a great feature the older model I replaced didn't have. We like it!

I think they are just alike. I have both. Can't say I ever tried to see if the pepper mill would grind salt. They work the same. Honestly I hardly ever use the salt mill. It looks nice sitting with the pepper mill. They hold a lot so I do not have to refill that often.
