Could you compare some grains of this to some table salt and give your impression of the particle size.Thank you.

Okay, I just got some table salt and put it in one hand. Then my husband and I went into the backyard, opened up the sandbox, put some sand in the other hand and looked. We both agree that the sand particles are slightly smaller than the salt. We've used this sand for several years now, without problems, and will continue to order it when we run low. We keep it in an above-ground sand table, with a sturdy cover, so it's always clean. I hope this helps.

I don't know because the product was at an Early Years Centre, not in my home. But I can tell you that if you put salt on your hand, and then rub the salt into your hand, the salt does not feel sharp as if it is digging and ripping into your skin like this product. Also when the sand is poured, some of the particles go into the air. So some of the particles must be quite small.

It is not fine grained, but not coarse grained, it doesn't need to be ground, it will go through a salt shaker.

I used regular Morton's table salt. The ice cream turned out great it was just a lot of work. Hope this helps.

The salt is quite coarse - more like Kosher salt. I would suggest trying it out first and then buying a grinder if necessary

I guess I'm a bit of a salt fiend. I just take a pinch out of a container and sprinkle it in my cooking or on my dish. I agree it doesn't grind well in my grinder either.

I'm not sure whether they are whole grains or not because it is not specified anywhere online or in the bag. However, the flour is certainly stone ground, not white and pretty coarse, you can distinctly see and feel the chunks of different grains. So it is DEFINITELY not a very refined flour and its texture and appearance resembles a whole wheat flour, NOT a refined flour.

I would say they are comparable to table salt, they worked great from my bath fizzies!

It's very close to commercial table salt in coarseness. Tastes much better ;-)

It is not as salty as table salt or sea salt. I'm not sure the color matters. I'll think it's where it's from and that it has so many added nutrients.

i haven't used up the salt that came with it, so i don't know. Sorry i couldn't help!

Try it from your store first if you have doubts. My experience is that it has a whole grain texture. I like it.

Yea I have used regular (kosher) salt plenty of times. I did notice I had to use a decent amount more though. I guess because it is more fine than ice cream salt. I use ice cream salt now though so I am not using up my regular salt and ice cream salt is really cheap.

HI. I made a ball of aluminium of 2.64 grain for you and dropped it on the scale over 10 times, also 10 times in between was another weight of 45.08 grainboth number were constant on every time. in resume, I can't tell you my 2.64 grain ball was exact, but it sure was constant.good luckPS, you should start a question with Hi at least... just saying :-)

It is not a fine sea salt but I always use as is! I believe the company recommends drying it out before using it in a grinder if you want it finer. The info on that process is on their website I believe.

About like regular table salt. It is potent and salty, like many of these substitutes. I use it sparingly.

It was not as course as I had thought it would be, being sea salt. It has the feel of Morton's table salt. I like to use it for cooking and save my more expensive course grind for finishing or topping my breads and bagels. The flavor is pretty neutral and normal salt flavor, not wet like sea salt either. It is great because it works well in salt shakers, but is easy to grab a "pinch" when cooking. It does tend to clump when humid, but so far has not got hard as a rock either.

I have used this grinder for both white sea salt and Himalayan Pink sea salt and it worked will for both. It creates a very fine powder. So I can only assume it would work will for smaller grains.
