Does herb grinder size matter?

The size of the grinder you choose can be a significant consideration. Obviously the larger grinders can handle a bigger single load, but the most important factors are convenience and portability. If the grinder is going to be used mostly or entirely at home, this won't matter so much, but if the consumer intends to keep it with them most of the time, then smaller is better.

What should I look for in a grinder?

Grinders are made of wood, acrylic and various metals. The most efficient and the easiest to maintain are metal ones so these would be the best choice. You also want to be sure the grinding teeth are sharp and strong and depending on where and how you intend to use it, you may want to choose one of the smaller, more portable models.

Why should I grind herb or tobacco?

It is perfectly possible to smoke herbs or tobacco straight out of the packet but whether you are smoking or vaping, you will have a much better experience if you chop or grind it finely. The increased surface area of ground herb or tobacco gives a more consistent burn and a better taste. It is also easier to pack into a pipe or roll in papers.

How do I use a grinder properly?

First, you need to load the herb or tobacco so that it is evenly distributed around the grinder, leaving the central part clear as this is where the moving parts operate. Don't overload it. Once the herb or tobacco is inside, use a gentle twisting motion and about 7-10 turns should be sufficient to produce the right consistency.

What's the best way to clean a metal grinder?

As with all grinders, you first need to disassemble it for easy access to its parts. Tap each part gently to remove excess matter. Then brush all the surfaces with a toothbrush or small paintbrush.

Remove them with tongs then set them aside to cool and dry before reassembling your grinder.
