ARULA™ Pfeffermühle aus massivem Akazienholz

A Mill That Earns Its Place at the Table
Turned from a single piece of solid acacia and fitted with a hand crank, this pepper mill grinds whole peppercorns the slow way — by hand, the moment before the plate arrives. The warm grain sits as calmly on a weekday shelf as it does at a long Sunday table.
The Details
Why You'll Love It
Solid Acacia Body
Turned from one piece of hardwood — grain that deepens with use.
Hand-Cranked
A slow, ground-by-hand grind — no batteries, no buzzing motor.
Adjustable Grind
From a fine dust for sauces to a coarse crack over a finished plate.
Fresh-Cracked Aroma
Whole peppercorns keep their oils — you crack them the second you serve.
Refillable Top
Unscrew the crown to refill with whole peppercorns or sea salt.
Western Table Shape
A classic tall silhouette, weighted enough to stand without tipping.
Craftsmanship
Turned From Acacia
No two mills share the same grain. The natural acacia tone, the small streaks and the way it takes oil give every mill its own quiet character — a handmade detail you can feel the moment you turn the crank.
In the Kitchen
Crack It at the Table
Top and bake at the counter, then carry it to the table for a last crack over pasta, eggs or a roasted root. Winding a hand crank slows the moment down — exactly the small ritual that makes a meal feel considered.

Care Guide
Made to Age Beautifully
Empty any leftover peppercorns before storing, to keep burrs fresh.
Wipe the wood with a slightly damp cloth — never soak or put in the dishwasher.
Dry at once with a soft cloth, then stand upright to fully air-dry.
Re-oil the acacia every few months with food-safe board oil to refresh the grain.
Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it manual or electric?
Manual — it's a hand-cranked mill with no batteries or motor. A few slow turns at the table are all it takes to crack fresh pepper onto the plate.
What can I grind in it?
Whole black, white or mixed peppercorns, dried sea salt or a coarse salt blend. Avoid wet mixes or oily spices that may build up inside the burr.
How do I adjust the grind?
Turn the knob on the crown before you grind — clockwise for a finer crush, counter-clockwise for a coarser crack over the finished dish.
How do I refill it?
Unscrew the crown at the top of the mill, fill the body with whole peppercorns, then screw the crown back on. Refill takes a few seconds.
Is the wood food-safe?
Yes — the acacia is finished with a food-safe oil. Re-oil every few months to keep the grain rich and the surface smooth.
Will every mill look identical?
No. The acacia grain, streaks and tone vary slightly mill to mill — part of the handmade, natural character of solid hardwood.
