I’ve removed the lid from a disposable salt grinder by pulling hard.

Some kind of universal wrench. I have a weakened right (dominant) hand, from having broken the wrist, and I use pliers or a wrench for dozens of things.

Prob a Flat head screw driver will do the trick. Wait, what kind of grinder?

ajl's avatar

the fancy ones that grind.

If it’s disposable, can’t you just buy another one?

@Randy I would say they have ulterior motives, besides grinding “pepper”! What are you guys trying to grind?

crack rocks?

Randy's avatar

In that case, just buy a coffee bean grinder or a mortar and pestle. What are you guys trying to grind?

ajl's avatar

just trying to grind pepper actually….but we don’t want to keep buying new disposable grinders.

You can buy a refillable pepper mill(grinder) for as little as ten bucks!

Check out some of these!

If you go on YouTube and type in how to remove the top off of pepper grinder you will need to click on “Alaska Granny” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1eBr5yegBE She has a neat trick of getting them off. Good Luck!
