Review on Soeos Stainless Pepper Grinder Premium by Kristi Hovde

So I cook A LOT and usually for 4+ people and often 50+. I have a couple of quality salt and pepper grinders, but they're too small for the volume I use, so I wanted to replace them with something that offered both quality and volume. Aesthetically, the glass and stainless steel containers are a nice touch to display your gourmet salt and pepper and avoid mix-ups when grinding. Mechanically, grinders are upside down, meaning they must be turned to get the salt/pepper to squirt out, while many (most?) traditional grinders are upside down, with a handle on top that rotates the shaft toward the grinder below. so it doesn't have to be reversed. With a grinder on top, these grinders have a nice lid that needs to be removed and replaced with each use and is easy to lose (at least in my house). Not like the good old restaurant salt and pepper mills where the ground product is poured onto the floor. The lids are of course there to make the grinders look tidier and possibly to keep the salt and pepper fresh between uses. (my little rest). However, the primary goal of any spice grinder is to achieve the desired grain size and volume/flow rate for the task at hand. Bottom line, they're doing a great job. As for the reviews I've read complaining about the coarseness, flow etc of these grinders, well they are simple mechanics, just turn the little knob to the right for a finer grind and to the left for a coarser one grinding. I've tried this with the available settings and got at least 5 or 6 different levels of output from very coarse to semi-fine by gradually turning the knob from coarse to fine. Conclusion: If you don't want to spend 4 times as much. for some other "real" coffee grinders with unusual stainless steel and ceramic mechanics, choose this set and replace it after a few years if necessary.
