  • Patent number: 5897067
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a unique adjustable spice/pepper-mill. The spice/pepper-mill is equipped with a shifter mechanism which can be placed in three different positions. The shifter is located at the bottom of the spice/pepper-mill. The three positions of the shifter translate into the production of fine, medium and coarse ground spices/pepper. The different settings for grind size are found by rotating a tapered step ring which applies upward pressure on a male grinding mill forcing it upwardly into a female grinding mill. The higher the male grinding mill is located, the smaller the ground spice/pepper size produced.
