How To Choose Perfect Herb Grinders

By Lisa Kelly


A lot of individuals use herb, marijuana, or weed for therapeutic purposes so it is imperative that many of them also seek for grinders that they can use. However, many also do not realize that there are a lot of these things that can be a threat to their health. The cheap ones that you may come across in petrol stations and head shops may even be dangerous.

Because there are many of these things that you can pick from, it is vital for you to be able to know what you need to look for when you are going to buy one. There are many important considerations that one needs to keep in mind when choosing herb grinders. The following paragraphs will provide information on the things that you might need to look for when buying one.

Of course, the first that you need to take note of is the material from which it is made of. The most common ones are made of plastic, wood, and metal. There are a lot of advantages as well as disadvantages that come along the material so it is important that you do your homework and research on those to be aware rather than just choosing by aesthetic or price.

The teeth of most acrylic grinders are made out of the same material which can break easily, while the ones in wood are mostly made of nails which can rust overtime. The teeth on metal ones are mostly made of aluminum and sometimes, are coated with titanium. Consider choosing one with the most durable teeth as it will be one of the many factors that can affect the quality of grounded herb.

Another thing concerning the teeth on such equipment is its number, size, and shape. Most shredders would have about 50 teeth, while other ones would have 25 or so of the same size and in a diamond shape. Choosing one with more teeth as well as with the best size and shape can contribute to the grinding process to give you better ground herb.

The holes on a shredder allow the ground herb to drop or fall into the second compartment. Many brands utilize circular hole pattern, while there are those who use other patterns such as oval shaped holes. What you need to remember in choosing one is to look for the pattern which would allow only the completely ground material to fall into the second compartment.

You should also check for magnets on the lid of both compartments which composes the grinder. This is because there is a tendency for the lids to pop off while grinding which may spill the herb, so the magnets will be vital in keeping them together. Look for one with strong magnets that are also strongly attached so as to keep them from becoming loose in the long run.

Most have also incorporated a dash of style and design to most grinders to cater to many individuals. There are manufacturers who have placed handles on them to allow for easier grip while there are also those who came up with removable screens. Choose one that will not only be stylish but will make the grinding process easier.

Finally, its also important that one considers the extras that may come when they purchase such like a scraper or a pouch. There are a great deal of manufacturers that have included pouches for protection as well as to make it easier for one to carry the device easier while some have included extra scrapers. Choose one which includes useful extras so you do not have to buy them individually yourself.
