Pepper Grinders, also called pepper mills, are devices designed to grind fresh pepper from whole peppercorns. They are popular because the flavor and aroma of ground pepper fades within a few months while whole peppercorns stay fresh for a year or more.

Buying Guide
Pepper grinders come in variety of materials and styles, such as single-handed use or adjustable, fine to coarse grinds. Some electrical pepper grinders have a weight based mechanism so that they grind when turned up-side-down, others have a push button mechanism. Manual pepper grinders are also available in the single-handed styles.
