2-piece, 3-piece or 4-piece?

The number tells you how many chambers the grinder has.

  • 2-piece: lid and base, nothing else. Smallest, cheapest, hardest to clean, and no kief catcher.
  • 3-piece: adds a collection chamber underneath the teeth, so ground material drops through and you are not prising it out of the lid.
  • 4-piece: adds a mesh screen and a kief catcher below the collection chamber. This is the one most people end up wanting.

What actually matters

Teeth. Diamond-cut teeth in two staggered rows shred evenly; cheap pegged teeth tear and clog. Magnets. A strong magnetic lid keeps the grinder shut in a bag — the single most common complaint about budget grinders. Threading. Smooth, deep threads keep turning when the grinder is full; shallow threads bind and cross-thread. Material. Anodised aluminium is the sweet spot for strength and weight. Acrylic teeth break; wood looks good but absorbs moisture.

What size?

A 40–50mm grinder is pocketable and handles one or two sessions. 55–63mm is the standard desk size and grinds enough for a few joints at once. Anything larger is for prepping in bulk, not for carrying.

Getting a better grind

Fill to about two-thirds — an overpacked grinder jams and gives an uneven grind. Turn a few times, then flip the whole grinder upside down and turn again; gravity stops the finished material from being ground into dust. Dry material grinds cleanly; sticky material is easier if you chill the grinder for 20 minutes first. Once a month, tap out the kief with a scraper and wipe the teeth with an isopropyl-dampened cloth.

What is the kief catcher for?

It collects the trichomes that fall through the screen. Sprinkle it over a bowl or press it.

Why has mine got harder to turn?

Resin on the threads. Clean them and it turns like new.

Pair a grinder with rolling papers and a rolling tray.
