The lids unscrew if you turn them counter clockwise. Hold on to the metal ring with one hand and the glass jar with the other.

The silver part allows the unscrewing for refilling. Poor sealing allows the salt or pepper into the threads causing jams. You can try loosening as much as possible and soaking in hot water, but that doesn't always work. This us one of the big problems with this product.

The silver band lets you in screw the top. But the screw and thread parts get fouled with salt and won't detach. I had no trouble filling them until the salt seized with humidity and we washed the grinder glass. That ruined the salt grinder. The pepper grinder is still working well.

Pull the salt top section off - just above the black seal. You can fill from top. Hope this helps.

Be sure to only fill halfway. Pump the heck out of it in the beginning. It takes a few times to get the pressure to build. It will never be as fine as an aerosol

Volume wise, they are quite large so it is doubtful if you would even come close to filling them. You just twist them shut and can then turn it inside out and dispose of it. No mess at all.

I put them in a plastic lidded shoe box and filled it with water approx. 1/2 way up (3 qrts). You can always use a strainer and get rid of extra water if you want. Or use extra water so they can slosh around.

Fill the glass container and insert from the bottom. All steamers are hard to fill thru the top tiny hole

I usually poke about 2 in the middle and then work my way out with 5-7 more holes in the shape of a circle. Make sure they aren't too big!! As for water, I fill it about an inch or 2, too little water doesn't get the flavor and too much water gets into the hoses

hold each side towards the middle (top) gently pull apart and/push together to make bigger or smaller. Good Luck

Just lay them all on the grass fill with soil, plant them, then give each layer a good watering. Then stack. The soil will actually all hold together and you just need to water the top after. You'll see once you do it :)

I realize this answer is long after the question has been asked, but this may be of value to future readers. I use these for spare fuel to carry in my motorcycle's saddlebags. After I've had occasion to empty them, I refill them using standard filling station pump nozzles. It requires caution, and I have to go slow in order to not overfill, but it does work fine and I've not had any mishaps.

First of all there are two ways to refill lead.First way is to click on the button on the side and insert lead from the tip of the pencil (at the same time)Second way is to pull the back colored part out and fill in lead

Bunch them up into a ball ans shoot them down the hole nice and compact. That usually does the trick.

New way to fill; take out 2 screws from metal plate, slip one end of metal plate up carefully, see the reservoir, start slowly pouring in dry ink.shake to settle, pour more, repeat etc, got 90% in, set plate, insert screws, put in new chip, might have to restart computer It worked for mejust don't get in a hurry

You need to fill it. I used rice, but you can use sand, beans, rocks, steel shot or whatever you wish
