June 10, 2010 - The site is currently undergoing a compete redesign so that we can begin offering enhanced services to our retail and wholesale customers. When launched (soon, we hope) there will also be an entirely new look and feel to the site. We’re all excited about this; and that even includes our overworked webguy who’s struggling to make it all work seemlessly for you. Thanks - Kim Dailey
Welcome to the home of the Dailey Grind Handturned Grinders and Salt & Pepper Mills
Salt and pepper mills have made a huge comeback in recent years. If you’re reading this, there’s already a great chance that you agree with the following statement - There’s nothing better than using fresh ground pepper in your cooking. And it’s proven that the minerals in sea salt make it better for you than iodized salt.
The most important thing to me when I design and make a mill is that it not only feels good in your hand but that it also looks just good on your table or counter. Our mills come in a variety of sizes from 6” all the way up to a 24” tall giant.
Everything is not created equal. This may come as a surprise to some, but not all mill mechanisms are equal.
I’m very particular about all of the components that go into any our products and the crushing mechanisms are no exception. We offer two different styles of mechanisms. One of the best is made right here in the United States and comes from Chef Specialties. It’s a stainless steel mechanism for pepper with a separate salt mechanism made from polycarbonate. The other style mechanism we offer is a crushgrind mechanism made in Denmark - and this is the one I feel is the best available in the world today. You’ll know which mechanism is used in any given piece by it’s name. A piece with the American mechanism will be called a mill; and those with the Danish mechanism will be called a grinder.
I hope that you’ll find a mill (or grinder) here that’s to your liking, but if you don’t please contact me and we can talk about a custom-made piece just for you. I’ll ask you a lot of questions because I want to make sure that I have a clear picture of what you would like.
