What the AI looks for in Salt & Pepper Mill Sets
- Mechanism per mill
- The salt mill needs a ceramic or stainless mechanism. The pepper mill should have steel or ceramic. Some sets reuse a steel pepper mechanism for salt, and it corrodes.
- Easy identification
- Look for clear salt and pepper markings or contrasting finishes. Matching mills get swapped, and a refill in the wrong mill damages it.
Brands that matter
- OXO: Practical sets.
- Peugeot: Premium matched pairs.
- Cole & Mason: Mid-range sets.
What to avoid
- Sets that do not state the mechanism material for each mill.
