Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Vic Firth Tronco 10-Inch Salt Mill, Red CinnabarCustomer Review: Good! Summary: 5 Stars
This is a very nice salt grinder. The lacquer coating is excellent and high gloss. The grinding mechanism is of high quality. Twisting the little knob on top changes the grind from fine to coarse. I like to use sea salt, which is fairly coarse, but I don't like salt crunching between my teeth when I eat. With this grinder, you have complete control over that. In addition, this grinder has a nice, tactile, quality feel in the hand. I previously owned a beautiful German stainless steel salt grinder. It never worked properly and the salt consistently came out too coarse. That this was from Germany, where there is a fetish for precision, was a disappointment. That I had to toss such a nice but useless object into the trash was a small tragedy. With the Vic Firth Tronco, however, this was not a problem--and it's American made. Perhaps we have something to teach the Germans about quality--at least when it comes to salt grinders.
Description of Vic Firth Tronco 10-Inch Salt Mill, Red CinnabarThis Vic Firth Salt mill in a wonderful cinnabar red is manufactured to combine superb hand craftsmanship with an improved, patented nylon mechanism which produces the widest range of grinds available. Vic Firth, noted timpanist with the Boston Symphony Orchestra and drumstick aficionado, knows the pleasure of good wood. Only the finest American hardwoods are used in his gourmet housewares, including this elegantly tapered 10-inch salt mill with its smooth glossy finish. Ranging from coarse to fine, the grind on this mill stays in place and won?t shift when set with the patented lock-in crown nut. The richly colored salt mill makes an attractive addition to a well-set table, especially when paired with its twin peppermill in the same or complementary color. Fitted with a durable nylon mechanism that pops out for easy cleaning, the Maine-made mill comes with a lifetime guarantee. --Ann Bieri
