can the peppercorn be refilled? If so, how?

You twist off the little knob on top. Then the top and the top container for the salt can be taken off. Fill the pepper half, replace the salt part, the top, and the knob and BINGO. PS The main "pole" stays in place through it all. The things slide off of it.

of course it can. unscrew the silver top...remove the clear gasket around the center shaft... work the salt container back and forth and pull it off...fill the peppercorn reservoir with a spoon.... re-assemble the salt container and gasket... fill the salt container... screw the top back on.

Yes; you just unscrew the metal wheel on the top and lift the salt chamber off. That reveals the pepper chamber.

Yes, you unscrew the knob at the top, lift the section that holds the salt off a square metal rod that runs down the center, add peppercorns around the rod, put the salt section back on the square rod, and screw the knob back on the top.

Yes, more peppercorns can be added when the original ones are gone. Unscrew the small silver nut at the very top of the salt shaker and carefully lift the salt container off without spilling the salt. The peppercorns go in the lower container in the bottom half of the unit. Fill and reassemble the unit.

yes! I don't think it comes filled with pepper. The bottom twists off so you can fill it.

You may have filled it too much. Try pouring out some of the pepper and try again. Make sure the two pieces interlock.

Yes, I would think so. Just be sure it's completely dry before you re-fill it. Question: its had nothing but pepper in it, why would it need to be washed?

Sure. Contack the Pepper Mill folks. I just received a replacement handle recently.

No. The top container has a built in handle in the back which you lift the container out of the unit and take it to the sink, turn it upside down, unscrew the cap, fill it up with water, replace the cap, and then invert it, and replace it back in the humifidier base. I find it very easy to refill.

I do not believe it is refillable. If it is, I certainly don't see how I'd do it.

It is not supposed to need a refill. I think they have a lifetime guarantee. Get in touch with the company.

No they cannot be refilled. I must add that we have been using the preserver for at least 4 years and they have been very successful in keeping our produce fresh longer.

Hi Saiganesh K. It is both refillable and reusable. It is also durable. As I noted in my review, however, the grind is not adjustable. Also if you want a lot of pepper (like for cooking purposes) it will take quite a few presses on the plunger to get a moderate amount of ground pepper. It is great for individual uses, if you like a moderately course grind.

A little vinegar works well. Just wash/rinse well afterwards before refilling.

Turn it base up. Remove the base. The chrome portion separates into two peaces. Inside is a battery pack. Remove the battery pack andd add peppercorns. Rem....bas up or you will spill peppercorns.

No, not that I've noticed, it's really small, you just screw the bottom pour in the pepper and screw it back on....but I could be wrong

Just pull the top piece, then unscrew the remaining piece w/the grinder and put in your peppercorns then reassemble. To use invert it then twist the section w/the peppercorns. No messy crumbs on the table from grinding as when you set it upright the grinding piece becomes the top. You should love it! I've given 7 of them for Christmas presents! Enjoy!

the mesh stretches so the holes in the mesh can be stretched to let out a small peppercorn. I don't think that it would happen though with normal use.

Yes, the glass separates from the silver. To open, wrap one hand (thumb, forefinger) on the silver. Wrap your other hand (thumb, forefinger) on the glass. turn your hands in opposite directions. Turning is not easy, but keep persisting. If necessary, place rubber bands around each part that you wrap with your thumb/forefinger. that may give you a better grip. Peppercorns come in numerous varieties. I prefer the green, which are milder than black but a more delicate flavor.

The mesh stretches on the Recency Soup Socks, so it is possible peppercorns could escape. Bouquet Garni bags by cheftools.com is a 100% cotton fine mesh bag and it will hold the peppercorns securely.
