Great product - Very Chic!
I love this grinder, especially since it's plastic-free and super easy to use!
Pepper your steak in 7 cranks instead of 70.

The perfect companion to the Pepper Cannon. Season generously with crunchy chunks or dust with invisible powder (plus everything in between).
When I launched the Pepper Cannon, people asked for a matching salt mill.
"NO", I said.
Then, like a fool I continued: "inside each salt crystal is… more salt! It doesn’t have any added flavor/aroma qualities that are improved by grinding, and it doesn’t degrade like pepper when pre-ground."
I made my case for why willing customers shouldn't want what they want, but they persisted. Fine. "If more than 300 people preorder it, we'll make it."
Surely there are no more than 72 people who want a Salt Cannon companion for their Pepper Cannon...
The list of people quickly exceeded 300, and so the process began. I expected we would swap out the burrs and turn it around within months, and we did!
17 months.
We tested burrs, coatings, bearings, metals, and the patience of many more than 72 people before producing a mill that can grind through over 200lbs of rock salt without appreciable performance loss.
The Salt Cannon has settings on both ends of the grind spectrum that probably don't need to exist. Do you need tiny amounts of fine pixie dust salt particles? Probably not. Do you need giant chunks of rock salt dispensed at nearly a tablespoon per crank? Almost certainly not. That's irresponsible. And yet, if you own the Salt Cannon you can have them.
Was making the grind range so large overkill for salt?
Absolutely.
But we have the Pepper Cannon, so overkill is probably just the right amount of kill for us
Don't worry: output decreases with grind size, so you can get the exact amount of salt you want at the desired consistency.

The Mannkitchen equipment just works. They are robust and elegant.
Expensive, but worth every cent. I bought the Pepper Cannon originally and was skeptical—but having had it for the better part of a year now, my only regret was not buying both simultaneously.
I kept finding myself lamenting that I couldn’t use the Pepper Cannon with salt (doing so would risk internal corrosion, eventually). It’s hard to describe just how satisfying and smooth the action of this is without actually trying it…suffice it to say that I was unwilling to risk it. A couple friends have tried it and likened it to a swiss watch and a well-oiled gun.
I truly consider this an investment, in the “Buy It For Life” category (or perhaps even longer, should you be kind enough to will it to an appreciative relative).
Love this salt grinder. It works beautifully and looks fantastic with my mannkitchen pepper grinder
My wife was reluctant on the first purchase of the pepper cannon. It’s a lot of money for a pepper grinder, but after using the product she enjoys it immensely.
We never liked traditional salt shakers. The holes occasionally were getting blocked or restricted. And in the past we also owned a different salt grinder but the gears were plastic . They couldn’t hold up to daily use in the kitchen .
After the purchase of the salt cannon, we now get consistent salt chips of any size we choose.These two grinders are great!
