In the process of designing the spice grinder, the designer extracted the tea tasting behavior of holding the cup lid and turning it in the bowl of the lid in an emotional way, and integrated the behavior into the process of grinding spices. Allow the user to evoke the fragrance and flavor of the spices with the same actions to achieve emotional and fun. The whole process of grinding spices is integrated with the all-too-familiar act of tea-tasting, and they both end up with a flavorful result. This makes the process of grinding spices not just labor, but a ritualized enjoyment and experience.
