Will kosher/sea salt come out of the shaker top?

Sea salt definitely. That's what I have in mine. Course kosher salt should also be fine.

No. The salt and Pepper comes from the bottom - a bit messy. I have a zip bag just for these when I travel with them

The salt comes out of the top. If you store the salt container bottom side up, salt will leak out onto the counter top.

Would not recommend as shakers are designed for dry ingredients. Parmesan cheese which is dry would work.

YES. I did not use the shaker thing at all and they seem to fit fine. I did tighten only one too tight and cracked the plastic. That was my fault. The rest are fine and I LOVE having them all the same! They are better than I had before with dozens of different size containers! :-)

Size matters: poured right out of our grinders. too fine for them. too coarse for our shakers. we haven't used salt dishes? in decades. still haven't found source of iodized coarse that works for us. good luck

No, they are not thrown together. There is a piece of thick plastic down the center of the shaker (you can see the line in the picture). You turn the top one way and you access the salt, then turn the opposite direction and you have the pepper. I have had no problems with it.

Yes.....their "ground" spices have a shaker side and / or a flap you can open to "pour" into measuring spoons if desired. I have the Nutmeg, Cinnamon, Cloves and All Purpose Seasonings and they all have this kind of plastic shaker top, which can be removed to re-fill the bottle.

no, but that's a good idea. I am storing salt in the one I bought and it seems to get some moisture in the jar. Let me know how it goes if u try it first.

The popper I ordered came with a thin metal scoop but no salt shaker. Hope that helps.

Yes it does have more moisture. It will come out of a regular shaker but I find putting it in a container with a pop off lid works better as it does get clogged sometimes. It may not clog enough to annoy you but I always had to pound it off of something to break the salt up to use it.

I would think it would have to be some sort of coarse salt. I think regular salt would go right through.

The openings on top of shaker are too small for the usually coarse kosher salt.

Hello,The holes are Very Large..Enough for Kosher Salt and Course Pepper could be a stretch, although I will tell you regular salt and pepper will pour out without shaking. I just asked my wife about your question and she also said she isn't sure about the Kosher Salt, but Course Pepper should be no problem.Sorry but we just aren't sure....Dave

The jars are originally for jams and food samples, so they do not have plastic shaker tops. I don't find it annoying (but never use them much in other spice jars). So, if this is something you use a lot--you might find these an inconvenience!

Not sure, but we use very coarse sea salt crystals and have never had a problem.

The salt part definitely separates from the pepper, but can get stuck. I think the salt gets between the plastic and metal rod. I usually loosens with a few tries.
