Mostly curious about the finish you guys suggest for a tiger maple salt mill. I'm thinking something to pop the grain first. Maybe blo or shellac ?
And then the same wipe on poly that I will use for the walnut pepper mill? I want the pepper mill to remain as dark as possible.
What say you experienced mill masters?
Also, pepper mill mechanisms are often stainless steel and the salt mills ceramic.
Assuming the intent of the ceramic is corrosion resistance to the salt is there any reason not to use ceramic for all mills?
Thanks good people!
