Review on ๐Ÿฆ„ Black Unicorn Magnum 6" Pepper Mill by Steven Loy

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Performance is perfect, produces a surprising amount of pepper but slips a bit when wet

Ignore the price and stop comparing poor quality products; Buy this, it's pretty much the perfect size and ejects a borderline obscene amount of pepper at a time, although it can be a bit slippery if your hands are wet. A metal sanding pad will likely outlast a plastic case depending on how often you drop it. A small tray for your countertop is great, and the filling hole isn't as inconvenient as other reviewers have made it out to be. The adjustable size has a wide range from very small to huge chunks (which is where I'll keep it forever). At first it looks a little menacing on the kitchen table, like some kind of alien device is watching you cook, but I have a solution for both that look and slippery problems. I took 5 thick purple rubber bands wrapped around asparagus or broccoli or whatever and put 2 on the top and 3 on the body. It makes him a bit silly and less serious, plus I can now wriggle out of him when my hands are wet or covered in olive oil. Now everything is perfect. Make sure you have a bucket full of peppercorns because from now on you'll be drowning all your salads and omelettes in heavy torrents of ground pepper. There's a TON of pepper in this thing, and it's basically impossible to squeeze even a tiny drop out of this thing (but who even tastes a drop of pepper?), so you end up grinding peppercorns like Mario, whatever your name is, and you do it . your grandmother's Italian recipes. I ran out of pepper today after topping up just a month ago and thought I had a year's supply of peppercorns.
