Would this product effectively dispense salt into a container? I am trying to find an economical way to fill spice jars.

We gave this as gift so don't have first hand knowledge to answer your question. The dispenser is intended for liquids so how the mechanism will handle a granular material such as salt is unknown to me.

The salt comes out of the top. If you store the salt container bottom side up, salt will leak out onto the counter top.

It is a very nice shaker but the holes are way to big for that kind of salt. Maybe you could put tape over the holes on the back and only leave a couple open.

The KitchenArt 215000 will easily hold the contents of a standard jar of spice. The large volume containers that are 2"x3"x4" will not fit in the spice holders. It will take about half of the contents of the large containers.

Possibly.. My rock salt came w/ rock salt,, about the size of small pepper corns, but a few larger. After a year, I noted, after your query, that there are a ring of 3 holes & four holes underneath alternating, for 10 bays, or 70 total holes, for air to come in. Over 60% of mine after 1 yr's use, needed punching thru with a medium sizede needle,, probably solidified salt, as I punched about 20 holes with my needle, 1/3 were still open .so maintenance must be needed.. Nobody ever mentioned that before. If your fine ground salts are smaller than a medium size needle, you'd need a fine fleeter stuffed inside, or a filter attached under the device. which would work -an oversized cloth, wrapped with simple rubber band. The bottom opening for refills is a small 1/2' clear rubber stopper. That should give you a better insight of the unit. Moisture is going to affect both large & small crystals too.

No, I don't think so. When I get ready to re fill I am going to purchase Himalayan crystal salt. You can use the same inhalerthere is a stopper on the bottom of it.

It's probably not a good idea to put salt in the popper. I can't see a reason for doing it while popping though. There is no warning for not doing it from the manufacturer.

Size matters: poured right out of our grinders. too fine for them. too coarse for our shakers. we haven't used salt dishes? in decades. still haven't found source of iodized coarse that works for us. good luck

I think that would work because the Rx bottles are lighter than the spice jars and they are similar diameters. I think it's a great idea. Theses organizers are not that expensive so it's worth a try. Thanks for the idea. I'm going to try it.

I haven't tried to use finer salt. I've only used larger grain salt. I'm not sure this would be a a good idea since the grains are already small and may "gum" up the grinder. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Yes, but Amazon would be the people to ask. I just use it for different kinds of salt

It is a little difficult to refill. I use a small spoon to fill it up and place the container in a dish to stop making a mess on the kitchen table. I use it for pepper only and find the salt side is more difficult to grind.

I can't say absolutely but it shouldn't, unless it's naturally occurring. Real Salt is nothing but salt, unprocessed except for cleaning. There is nothing added to it, if that's what you want to know.

Going to depend on weight of the spice jar & how often it's used. To be safe, I'd say no. Maybe just buy & test out with something heavy, and twisting jar on & off 50x to see how it holds up.

Hello Gaby,The listing is for one mill and it will work with salt, pepper or any similar whole spice. It appears Amazon has been shipping some people two mills for the price of one by mistake. Best Regards,Eparé Team

If you keep it properly closed each separate salt/herb will retain its own characteristics. I've had great luck with mine! Enjoy.

Yes if it is a measuring tsp. size. I used a funnel to add spices to the jars.
