Tips In Choosing The Correct 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.

Even when there is a huge variety of grinders that you can choose from, it is important that you thoroughly know the things that need to be considered when you want to purchase one. Much information about herb grinders such as material, value, and ability should be considered. The list below will provide you with some tips to follow so that you choose the best one for you.

First is considering the material from which it is going to be made of. Generally, grinders are made of three types of materials namely, acrylic or plastic, wood, and metal. Of course there are pros and cons for each material so you might to check that out before you settle for buying one because it is cheaper or because it looks pretty.

The teeth on shredders are an important feature as it is what is going to do the work for your herb. Depending on the primary material, the teeth can be made of plastic, metal, or nails. When choosing, consider the teeth that it has because it will determine the overall performance of the tool.

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 next thing that comes close to the teeth are hole patterns on the crusher. Most grinders would commonly have a circular hole pattern although others may also have a different one, such as an oval shaped pattern. These holes serve as the entry way for the crushed herb to go to the second compartment so pick one which minimizes the possibility of having improperly ground herb on your product.

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.

One also needs to look at the design of the shredder. Choose one that not only fits your lifestyle, but also has a design that makes the task easier. Most have come up with innovations such as removable screens for easier cleaning as well as handles or finger placements for easier grip.

And even when they seem little, extras such as pollen scrapers or bags that come along the tool is also something you need to take note of. Choose ones that comes with a couple scrapers for extra in case you lose the first one you have been using. Bags will not only help you carry the equipment everywhere but also protects it from being dents or scratches especially when not in use.
