Gourmet Coffee Corner

One of the most versatile pieces of equipment in the kitchen is a spice or pepper mill. Although these products are normally marketed for a specific purpose, you can you your imagination to come up with other uses. I keep two mills in my house; one for spices and another for coffee.

You can use your mill to create a variety of fresh, custom spice blends for a fraction of what you pay at the store. Mills are also a great way to grind your own coffee at home. Grinding your own coffee lets you ensure the freshness of your beans and leads to a better tasting cup of Joe.
