@finishing grinder: not surprised magic flight came up with this, because the MFLB really needs fine powder, even moreso than the volcano.

i'm gonna borrow* a coffee grinder in the next few days and try it out. i'll let you guys know how it turns out.

*i don't drink coffee at all, so i got no hardware for it.

if you want the material to come out extra fine freeze it before grinding, freezing makes the bud more brittle.
if you want to the be really, really fine then freeze it again after it's ground and sift with a 250 micron pierced steel plate while its still frozen.

I use that:


Works better than either an herb or coffee grinder, plus you can easily collect any resin stuck on it.

The cons of coffee grinder is resin stick all over it and is hard to collect as the very grinding process warm up the weed/resin if done the wrong way...+ the coffee grinder won't last very long as resin get infiltrated in the mechanism.

I like that. It will also make less resin stick to the grinder. Thanks

I lied. I hand grind seeded bud as the electric one breaks the seeds into pieces too small to screen out.

Seeded bud needs to be crushed by hand & the seeds rolled out like this-

Been using a spice/coffee grinder for a while now on a daily basis. Just tap the button two or three short pulses and you are done. Yes you will have to wipe out the body and the inside of the plastic lid on occasion with some ISO but it's no big deal. I understand where canadacannabis is coming from but have honestly not noticed any change in potency from hand breaking, hand grinding or using the coffee grinder.
