FAQ:
What is the difference between using a grinder and breaking it up by hand?
The best consistency for your herb is somewhere down the middle, not too fine yet not chunky but depending on what equipment you are planning on using (bong, pipe or rolling a joint). If your herb is too fine, it will burn too quickly and you might get a burnt taste but if you don’t grind your herb at all, then it will not burn properly – some spots might burn faster than others. Once heated, a medium consistency will provide you with an even burn and ultimately a better smoke!
Should I buy a plastic or metal grinder?
This depends on your budget. A plastic grinder is a lot more cost effective, whereas a metal grinder is more of an investment – it will last longer if care for it. Also, a metal grinder will handle large chunks more easily without the chance of breaking. A cheaper plastic grinder is more suited for people on the go who don’t want to carry around a scissors and don’t want to break it up by hand, if it is lost or damaged then it can be replaced relatively cheaply.
How do I use this 3-piece plastic grinder?
When using a plastic grinder, it’s best not to fill it completely in one go but to rather grind small batches to avoid breaking any of the grinding teeth. The storage compartment comes in handy for storing ground herb in between grinding batches. Since the grinder is transparent, you can easily check the consistency and grind more if needed.
Do I grind my herb the same consistency for a bong, pipe or joint?
No, if you plan on rolling a joint or using a pipe then you will want a medium grind consistency but if you plan on smoking from a bong, then don’t grind as much – leave your herbs a bit coarser.
How do I clean my plastic grinder?
Clean your grinder every time after use to prolong it’s life, this will ensure that there is no grime build up and will provide you with a clean and consistent grind. Avoid using bong or glass cleaning solutions as the chemicals could cause the plastic to go cloudy or crack over time. The best way to clean your plastic grinder is with warm soapy water and a cleaning brush or pipe cleaner, which can be found in our bong cleaning supplies collection: https://www.mybongshop.com.au/collections/bong-cleaning-supplies
How do I know when my plastic grinder needs replacing?
Great question and this is important as a damaged grinder can impact on the grind consistency and hence the outcome of your smoke! Signs that your grinder needs replacing are broken or damaged grinding teeth, inconsistent grinds and any cracks in the plastic.
