Technical notes
- Corrosive product: faster wear of internal components (rotor, screens, hammers, rubber seals) and external ones (piping, cyclone, grinding chamber); stainless steel equipment reduces this wear without eliminating it.

Black pepper is the fruit of the black pepper plant of the Piperaceae family, and is used as a spice. Piperine, which is present in black pepper, causes the sensation of spiciness. It is native to Querala, a state in southern India.
When dry, this spice is ground, and then as a powder it can be placed on food to add a spicy flavor.
Moinhos Vieira has several customers who use its mills to grind black pepper.
