Hello,
I just completed my first salt mill yesterday, it is a Chef Specialties mill, but I now have a couple of questions/concerns.
1. Is the grind adjustable on this model? The reason I ask is because I had the thumbscrew completely backed off and it still only gave me a powder. It looks like the retainer bar actually contacts the male grinder preventing it from separating from the female grinder, therefore only giving me the super-fine powder output.
2. Do I need to coat the inside of the mill to prevent the salt from absorbing moisture? I filled the mill last night and went to use it this morning and the salt at the output was wet so I emptied the whole mill into a bowl and the salt was all wet, not damp but actually wet.
Thanks,
Bill
