Probably not really a lifehack but in my quick search I couldn't find this tip listed anywhere else on here. Someone recently broke my usual pepper mill, so in a rush I grabbed one of these McCormick black pepper grinders at the grocery store two weeks ago. Well, I had to refill it tonight with my bulk peppercorns and was shocked to discover that these things are considered disposable, single-use only. Show
Really McCormick? Shame on you guys. Such a waste. Anyway, a quick google search brought up different ways to open up this disposable grinder, like soaking the lid upside down in hot water for 10 minutes, baking it in the oven, drilling a hole. etc. Someone even had a video posted on this subreddit about year ago where he just ripped the top off, Hulk-style with his bare hands. I guess that makes me a weakling because after one sorry attempt I wasn't having any of that. True lifehack? Buy an actual pepper mill and be done with these disposable pieces of crap. But, in the interim, should you find yourself needing to refill one of these, there's no need to soak it, bake it, drill it or throw it against walls. Just 10 seconds of blowing a hairdryer on high underneath and around the plastic lid will open it all up easy peasy. And then buy a real pepper mill already. TL;DR If you find yourself needing to refill a disposable spice grinder, blow a hair dryer on high directed underneath and around the lid for 10 seconds and it will pop right off once you open it. Do you have one of these? I actually have two and both were almost empty. I was frustrated trying to figure out how to get the cap off without destroying it. I twisted, turned, yanked and even tried prying it off without any luck. The thought of tossing out a perfectly good pepper grinder sparked an internet search. One of the searches recommended soaking the cap in hot water for 10 minutes. It seemed reasonable, but I wasn't totally convinced that that was the best method. So I headed down through the comments to see what others thought. Some loved the water method, but many suggested using a blow dryer and that's just what I did. The experiment was a great success! This is what I did, Heat the bottom of the cap with your blow dryer on high for about 1 minute, turning the bottle as you heat it. I actually held the bottle in my had while I heated it, but I had to lay it on the table to take the photo. Then pull it apart. The cap will come right off. You can also use a kitchen towel to get a better grip. If you have any peppercorns still in the bottle do this over the sink or you will have peppercorns flying everywhere. Did that with the first bottle. Fill the bottle and push the cap back on. Did you know that the circles on the top of the lid determines how small or large your pepper mill will grind your pepper. To change the grind, lift the red tabs and twist to adjust. The larger the circle = the larger grind.
