Different varieties of pepper grinders are available. Some of them are manually operated and some are operated using a battery. Both electric pepper grinders and the manually operated grinders have a set-up that is alike. Initially, pepper corns are powdered in pepper mills. These mills contain two metal burrs or wheels that are operated to obtain the powder of the pepper corns. These mills are huge and difficult to accommodate in the houses. This difficulty arose to the development of pepper shakers that are small in size and can be placed on a table top. Electric pepper grinders also contain wheels that are operated upon switching on the button. The quality of the ground pepper is constant and its fineness can also be altered accordingly. For this reason, chefs prefer these pepper grinders in their day to day work.

Usually, pepper grinders consist of two units, an inner unit and an outer unit. The basic component that is the pepper mill is situated in the inner unit. It is made up of tough materials that are good enough for daily use. The outer unit acts as a protective covering for the inner unit and is generally made up of plastics, metal, wood or glass. Some other handmade pepper grinders are also available in the market. These are expensive as they are made up of ebony, pink wood, teak wood, etc. Because of their importance, pepper grinders are available almost everywhere in a variety of shapes, sizes and prices. They are also given as presents. As salt always accompany pepper, some grinders will also have salt shakers on the top. They are also available in matching sets in the market.

One good example of an Electric Pepper Grinder is the MIU Electric Peppermill. This electric pepper grinder consists of stylish outer shape and a greater grinding system. The mill also consists of a glass window which facilitates to watch the remaining number of peppercorns. Upon switching on the top button of the electric pepper grinder, the grinding starts. A lamp is also present at the underside which allows us to estimate the amount of pepper coming out. This grinder has a carbon steel grinding gear facilitating a longer usage and a dial to adjust the fineness of the grind. When the grinder is at rest, we can cover its opening with a plastic lid given for it. It accommodates six AAA batteries that help to run the grinder. We can use this grinder only for grinding peppercorns and not for other spices. The electrical components of it are one-year guaranteed and a lifetime guarantee is given for the grinding mechanism.
