Question My Pepper Grinder... need a solution

For those of you who use pepper grinders. ... Man, I love them. Anyway... when I set mine on the table I get loose pepper gounds on the table or surfaces and I hate that... has anyone got a good solution to this..

I hate having to clean my table every day or every time I notice the pepper grounds scattered about.

What do you think and how would you solve this dilema.. Is there something I don't know about and you need to fill me in..

Thanks,

I'm the pepper grinder in our house and I'm in the habit of giving the grinder a few good knocks on the heel of my hand when finished grinding. Works well.

I do the same as Panini, AND I keep mine on a little coaster that I can throw in the dishwasher from time to time.

Default A coaster?

Well, maybe I'll just try a coaster. I always shake and pat my last few grinds into my food before I put back on the table.. but, still seem to end up with pepper grinds...

... oh by the way.. I have a pretty good grinder... not a junky one.. just thought I would say that.

On the contrary, it's the Rolls-Royce of the pepper mills!
