For Atlantans who love to cook and appreciate fine kitchen tools, there’s a new trio on the market that aims to elevate the everyday cooking experience: Black Rain, White Rain, and the latest addition, Grater Rain. Created by Jimmy Olmes, the designer behind Reactor Watches, the Rain Collection of kitchen tools brings a new level of ease and efficiency to home cooking. These products are designed not just for precision but to make seasoning and garnishing as effortless as it is enjoyable, combining state-of-the-art technology with sleek, modern design.

“I created Black Rain out of a personal need for something better,” Olmes explains. “Traditional mills often require two hands, which just isn’t practical for anyone who’s multitasking in the kitchen. With Black Rain, we designed a mill that you can operate with one hand and that still aims to deliver precision each time.”

The Effortless Precision of Black Rain

At the heart of this kitchen tool collection is Black Rain, a one-handed electric pepper mill that sets itself apart from anything else on the market. The innovative design allows cooks to grind pepper with just a single hand, making it ideal for those busy moments when you’re stirring a sauce or sautéing vegetables. Its intuitive, ergonomic shape makes it easy for anyone to season dishes with ease.

“Black Rain is one of the few mills crafted specifically with Atlanta home chefs in mind,” Olmes says with a smile. “We thought of everything—from the LED light that shows exactly how much seasoning you’re adding to the easy-to-use indexed coarseness settings. Our goal was to make seasoning not only effortless but also precise.”

Unlike traditional pepper mills that require a lot of guesswork, Black Rain’s indexed settings allow users to choose their preferred grind level with accuracy, from a fine dusting to a hearty, coarse grind. Its powerful motor and high-capacity output mean that even larger quantities, like those needed for BBQ or roasts, can be seasoned quickly. Whether you’re whipping up a quick weekday meal or crafting a feast for family and friends, Black Rain is designed to provide consistent results.

White Rain: A Perfect Companion for Salt

Following the acclaim of Black Rain, Olmes and his team introduced White Rain, a salt mill that complements the pepper mill’s efficiency and elegance. Made with a durable ceramic grinder specifically for salt, White Rain is designed for effortless, one-handed operation like its pepper counterpart. This feature, unique to the Rain Collection, offers a reliable option for those who want a salt mill that doesn’t require two hands or cumbersome adjustments.

“Salt is essential to cooking, so we gave White Rain the same attention to detail,” Olmes explains. “We wanted a mill that accommodates all types of salt, from fine grains to coarser sea salt. And it needed to be as easy to use as Black Rain.”

White Rain’s coarseness can also be adjusted via simple indexed settings, enabling users to achieve the right texture without constant tinkering. With its sleek design, White Rain brings an elevated look to any countertop, matching the aesthetic of Black Rain while making it easy for home cooks to enhance flavors with precision.

The New Grater Rain: For Hard Cheeses and Chocolate

Building on the success of Black Rain and White Rain, Olmes recently launched the newest member of the Rain Collection: Grater Rain, a tool specifically designed for hard cheeses like parmesan and even chocolate. With a single push of a button, Grater Rain creates finely grated ingredients in seconds, adding a perfect finishing touch to pastas, salads, and desserts.

“For Grater Rain, we wanted to make the grating process as simple as possible,” says Olmes. “No more cranking handles or worrying about sore hands. Grater Rain is designed to work with just one touch, producing fluffy shavings with minimal effort. It’s ideal for families who enjoy meals together and like to add that final garnish.”

Grater Rain’s ease of use makes it a convenient addition to any Atlanta home, from bustling kitchens to the refined spaces of culinary enthusiasts. Its powerful motor effortlessly grates even the toughest cheeses, saving time and making it accessible to all skill levels.

Simplifying the Cooking Experience for Atlanta Kitchens

Atlanta’s culinary culture is rich, blending Southern traditions with global flavors, and the Rain Collection fits perfectly into this dynamic. Each tool in the Rain Collection is crafted to simplify essential cooking tasks while maintaining a high standard of quality and style. Designed for single-handed operation and equipped with features that enhance convenience and accuracy, Black Rain, White Rain, and Grater Rain are ideal for Atlantans who appreciate functional, beautifully designed kitchen tools.

“The Rain Collection is built for people who take pride in their cooking and want to make the process as enjoyable as possible,” Olmes says. “It’s about empowering everyone—whether you’re a busy parent making dinner or a home chef preparing for a dinner party—to season and finish dishes with ease and confidence.”

The Rain Collection: Where Practicality Meets Performance

What sets the Rain Collection apart is its blend of practicality and performance. Unlike most mills, which require manual adjustments, Black Rain and White Rain both offer consistent indexed settings for coarseness, removing the guesswork from seasoning. This feature is especially helpful for new cooks, as it allows them to recreate dishes with consistent results. For those more experienced in the kitchen, the high-performance grinding mechanisms enable seasoned cooking with professional finesse.

Grater Rain follows suit, providing the same convenience and precision for garnishing. And because all three tools are built with high-quality materials and serviceable parts, they are designed to be long-lasting, a quality Olmes considers crucial.

“The tools we use in the kitchen should be built to last,” he notes. “It’s not just about having a good mill or grater; it’s about having a tool that will be there, day after day, year after year. We designed the Rain Collection to be durable and to age gracefully in any kitchen.”

Elevate Your Kitchen with the Rain Collection

For Atlanta residents who value quality and ease of use, Black Rain, White Rain, and Grater Rain offer a unique combination of form and function. From the LED lighting on Black Rain that illuminates your pepper output to the sleek, durable construction of White Rain, and the effortless grating provided by Grater Rain, the Rain Collection aims to make each meal preparation step feel intentional and refined.

“Creating this line has been about more than just functionality,” Olmes says. “The Rain Collection is about enhancing the cooking experience in ways people didn’t even know they needed. We hope it brings as much joy and ease to kitchens in Atlanta as it has to ours.”

Whether you’re seasoning a roast, adding the perfect pinch of salt, or grating cheese to top a pasta dish, the Rain Collection transforms everyday cooking into an experience worth savoring. With products that are thoughtfully designed and effective, Jimmy Olmes and his Rain Collection are helping Atlanta home chefs achieve reliable results with each meal.
