Why should Grinder ideally be used with a dry herb spray?
But first, what is a Grinder?
There are all shapes, wood, plexiglass, stainless steel, aluminum, manual and even electric….
But what's the point of a Grinder?
A grinder or herb mill is an object that consists of two, three, four parts or more.
A Grinder is composed of teeth aligned so that the plant matter placed inside is crushed effectively when turning both parts.
Basically it was a cooking tool with which we crushed garlic, parsley etc.
Its use has since been diverted to crumble dry plants and herbs to smoke at first and then to vaporize in a second time.
Some Grinders are made up of four compartments instead of two and let's see why…….
They have a filter separating the lower compartments from those above.
This compartment is called a "recovery filter."
It is therefore used to recover fine plant particles during grinding so that they can be made into plant concentrates without losing anything!
Why use a Grinder with a vaporizer?
First of all, here's a quick reminder of the two main types of heaters used by a vaporizer
Conduction Spray
With a vaporizer that heats your grass by conduction, it is very simple because the plant is in direct contact with the heating element.
In contact with this heating element, the plant will release its active ingredients in the form of steam.
The vaporization will not necessarily be very homogeneous since not all parts will be uniformly in contact with the heating element.
Convection Spray
With a convection vaporizer the air is heated through the heating element.
This warm air then passes through the dry herbs to extract the active ingredients.
It is therefore extremely important that the air circulates perfectly around as much of the plant as possible.
The Grinder will therefore allow you to grind, crumble and inflate your dry herbs for optimal use with your convection spray.
The rendering of the steam will therefore be better and the absorption of the active ingredients will be maximum.
What kind of "tooth" to choose for his Grinder?
There are different Grinders with different "cuts" depending on your desires.
Let's start with the simplest but very good grinder at peak.
With these Grinders, you get a very good grinding like, for example, with the wooden Grinders of the brand RYOT.
Sharp-toothed Grinders are very practical.
They are quite resistant, light and grind quite efficiently herbs and plants of all kinds.
Grinders with sharp metal blades in the shape of diamonds provide a fine cut and a particularly effective grinding.
This is the most common type of tooth.
They are usually found on metal or aluminum Grinders.
Grinders with lightning-shaped shredders like thorinder's offer incredible cutting.
They are suitable for several different cuts, this is one of the musts in the luxury Grinder category.
There are also electric Blade Grinders that work as a mixer.
How to clean your grinder
Use a grinder is great but after a while it gets dirty
It then becomes very difficult to turn and to open it it gets stuck …
That's where you have to think about cleaning your Grinder!
But how do we do it?
A small brush is to be expected because it will allow to clean well the residues and dust stuck in the nooks and cranies …
Then it is the turn of the toothbrush which is an indispensable tool because it also allows to be embedded in every nook and cranund.
Finally, as with cleaning the vaporizer tips, there is isopropylic alcohol.
ISO alcohol is radical, you soak the Grinder completely disassembled for a few hours see all night if needed, rinse you with water and you will end up with a brand new grinder.
In conclusion
You now know how important a grinder can be for spraying plants.
In order to be sure not to waste all the precious molecular remains of your plants and herbs we advise you to use a four-storey grinder.
