Overview
Say bonjour to the Weber Workshops Moulin (pr. moo-lahn, French for ‘mill’).
As with coffee, we take great pleasure in all kitchen endeavors. We approached the Moulin’s design with the same desire to push the art forward that we embody in our coffee products. The result, first released in 2016, is the world's first truly premium pepper mill. In 2021 we added a salt mill on a record-breaking Kickstarter campaign. Now we craft and stock them as full sets (caddy included), or for sale individually.
Materials
Materials
They feature aerospace machined and anodized aluminum, marine-grade stainless 316L shafts, and sealed and food-safe bearings. The lids are held on with 3 neodymium magnets strong enough to hold, but still able to pull-off for a quick refill.
The salt mill, while aesthetically identical on the outside, has a re-engineered inside for the necessary corrosion-resistance when grinding salt. All of the critical internal pieces are machined in marine-grade 316L stainless steel, but while the grinding burrs and the bearings on the pepper mill are made from hardened steel, on the salt mill these are made of Zirconium.
The Caddy
The Caddy
The caddy is made from a solid piece of teak wood sanded and finished with a non-VOC oil. The handle is solid brass and held in with 2 stainless fasteners. It will last forever and patina gracefully.

Compatible Salts and Peppers
Compatible Salts and Peppers
Pepper: Use whole-grain peppercorns intended for grinding. We recommend Kampot and Tellicherry peppercorns, but there are endless varieties available in the world.
Salt: Use non-wet large grain salt crystals. Best to store in a dry location when not in use to prevent "sweating" of the salts.

Recommended Pairings
We scoured the world for the perfect salt and pepper mills, but always came up underwhelmed. So we decided to make our own.

Thoughtful Details
Easy to Refill
The lids for both mills are retained with 3 high-power neodymium magnets, providing enough retaining force to pick up by the lid while still being able to pull-off for quick refilling. They hold roughly 90 grams of peppercorns or dry salt crystals respectively.
